Feministory Open Access Library


Thanks to the Canada Council for the Arts, I get to start on a dream project - commissioning living composers to create arrangements of works by marginalized composers for primary and secondary wind band! These arrangements will be made available free of charge to music educators for use in their band programs. The goal of this Open Access Library is to help diversify the music curriculum, and to help remove barriers for music educators in accessing new music for the band programs.

I hope to be able to grow this library every year, but for now we are getting a great head start on 12 commissions. The plan is for the library to launch in 2024. Stay tuned!

​I have some incredibly exciting news! I have been selected for Canadian Art Song Project's Chung-Wai Chow and John Wright Art Song Mentorship Program. I will be mentored by the amazing Cecilia Livingston while I work on a new cycle of art songs titled "Newly Out." These art songs will look at my experiences of being newly out as a queer women, and will be written for contralto/flex as a way of honouring my own vocal range, but also creating more repertoire for diverse voice types.

Thank you so much to CASP for this honour. Read more here.
