New Muses Project talkback

Carter Miller, Lead Musicologist, New Muses Project

Gloria Yin, Co-founder, New Muses Project

This talkback will position New Muses Project’s residency at Cornell within a larger historiographical movement of diversity, equity, and inclusion work. After briefly historicizing DEI initiatives in classical music, this presentation will contextualize the numerous composers featured during the week within a larger discussion of how New Muses has strategically planned its residency with regards to our unique mission and values. The lecture will end with a structured Q&A session focusing on how to approach composers with warmth, openness, and curiosity.
