Thrilled to find this take on *Music at Hand* in @Choice_Reviews: “In all, this is a fascinating, provocative book from a curious author. It is challenging at times but always fun to read, and it carries promise for future inquiry. There is nothing like it out there.”

We are thrilled to share that @WesternU prof. Jonathan De Souza @_jdesouza_ has received the 2023 Award for Excellence in Jazz Scholarship for “Melodic Transformation in George Garzone’s Triadic Chromatic Approach” – published in #MusicTheory Spectrum's Fall 2022 issue.
ALT George Garzone, arrangement of “Have You Met Miss Jones?” from Four’s and Two’s (1996), mm. 1–9 (Garzone 2009, 59). My annotations highlight triads embedded in the countermelody.

Sincere congratulations to everyone whose SMT/AMS proposals were accepted this week! And solidarity for those of us who submitted unsuccessful proposals. Mine didn't make it this year, but I'm still excited to attend and connect with friends and colleagues.
