Overview edit

This is the user page for HI520, an exploration of the future of classical music in a class taught by Dr. Isaiah Jackson, at Longy School of Music of Bard College, Cambridge, MA. The page began in Autumn 2007, continuing regularly thereafter. In Spring 2016, we will continue using it to focus our work.

In lieu of a traditional research paper or a final exam, we will marshal our individual and collective efforts to expand and refine the public body of inquiry into the future of our art, reflecting critically upon it on our blog as we engage it here.
