Today I found out that I've been selected by the faculty and the dean to receive the Phyllis Bryn-Julson Prize for Commitment to and Performance of 20th/21st Century Music!!!!  I'm going to be recognized as an award recepient at the Honors Convocation at Peabody the night before graduation.  So cool!!!!!  (It seems there's some cash that comes with this prize as well:) 

I also got an email today from the artistic director of Squonk Opera.  They want to meet with me after they give a performance in South Orange next month.  I'm so excited. 

Tonight is Michael Berkovsky and Jia Jia (Jiayin) Shen's joint DMA chamber music recital.  I have talented friends.  :)

Awesome!! Congrats on your prize!

Squonk Opera? *giggle*

Thanks!

Haha, yeah, it is a totally strange name, isn't it? It seems they go around and "Squonk" different towns and cities, meaning they make these opera-type performances based somehow on the cities. Its such a funny word. SQUONK!

Congratulations! I know this may seem like small beans after the fact, but if you ever want me to write you anything, I will. I've yet to write an art song (which is odd since I am a vocalist originally). Again, congratulations on all your accomplishments.

Thanks! And I'd be happy to sing your music. If you write anything for voice, send it on over!

Congratulations! I've never heard of Squonk but they sound awesome.

They need to come to my town and let me play the (speaking role) villainess of the music school. :D

Yeah, my teacher just told me about Squonk the other day. Isn't that a funny name? I think they need to hit up all of NJ!
