Oops, I got a bit behind on updating my website this year! If you need to know what performances I had, feel free to send me an email and I can send you a list.

A few highlights of the year were the premiere of Reedbird by the winds and brass of the Vancouver Symphony, the premiere of Palouse Songbook by Sophia Tegart and Michael Seregow, the premiere of Bowheads by the Kapten Trio, and a performance of Green/Blue by Symphony Nova Scotia. I also really enjoyed organizing a conference on interdisciplinary collaboration between people in the arts and people in the humanities or sciences, which was held at St Andrews on November 21, 2019. I’m looking forward to developing further interdisciplinary collaborations for myself and others, through my work with the Science, Humanities and Arts Research Exchange (SHARE).
