I think what I remember most about my composition class at Tucson Youth Music Center was the time we spent reading through scores. Dr. Tentser always tried to teach us through the music itself, rather than through abstract exercises. I feel that I learned a lot about composition this way and was also exposed to a lot of great repertoires.

 

I am a Ph.D. student in music theory at the Jacobs School of Music and an associate instructor for music theory 1.

 

Taught music theory and aural skills for two years at Ohio State University.

 

I got married in May of 2018, finished a master’s degree in music theory at Ohio State University in May of 2019, and I just moved to Indiana to start my Ph.D.

 

Finish my Ph.D. and get a job at a university teaching music theory/history/composition.
