Original Gravity Podcast

Posted on October 20, 2017October 19, 2017 by Jessica

When I was at Electronic Music Midwest in Sept., I had the pleasure of being the guest on an episode of the Original Gravity Podcast. The podcast is a companion to the Original Gravity Concert Series in MA, which presents new music in breweries and similar locations.

Hosted by Keith Kirchoff and guest-hosted by Eric Honour, this episode covers home brewing, electronic music (including Concertina No. 1: Cathedrals), the Marie Curie Opera, and more. There’s even a previously unreleased excerpt from the opera draft included in the podcast. You can check it out on the Podbean app or listen online.

Featured on 1 Track Podcast

Posted on July 8, 2017July 8, 2017 by Jessica

This week, I was featured on Anthony Joseph Lanman‘s excellent 1 Track Podcast. The show presents musicians with one basic question: If you could introduce listeners to your music by playing them just one piece, what would it be and why?

When Anthony invited me to be a guest on the podcast, I knew right away that I wanted to share Trigger, my mini-opera about domestic violence because of the important topic it examines. You can listen to our conversation and hear some audio excerpts of the music here. If you’d like to watch the full premiere performance, a video is included below.

I was recently featured on Meg Wilhoite’s blog as part of her series asking musicians how they came to their career. You can check out the interview here. She also has been posting a piece a day by different women composers to celebrate March as Women’s History Month – some great music and composers so far, and more to come!
