I am a musicologist and cultural historian whose scholarship spans several centuries and geographic areas. I study the instrumental music and material culture of 17th- and 18th-century France and Germany, as well as the 20th- and 21st-century cultural politics of the early music revival.
My research has received numerous fellowships and awards, including the Society for 17th-Century Music’s Irene Alm Memorial Prize, the Alvin H. Johnson AMS 50, two Georges Lurcy Fellowships, the Chateaubriand Fellowship, and a DAAD Study Scholarship at the Bach-Archiv in Leipzig. I have been a member of the the EU Commission’s COST Action, EarlyMuse, which studies the current and future state of early music in Europe from a range of perspectives.
In tandem with my academic work, I collaborate with musicians specializing in historical performance: I have experience as an artistic director of recording projects, an editor and translator of liner and program notes, and a pre-concert lecturer for musicians and ensembles in the United States and in France. A complete list of these projects can be found here.
