Research Interests for Amy C. Scurria

My intention is to work towards creating an opera as my dissertation. I am currently working with LongLeaf Opera who have commissioned a 20 minute chamber opera to be composed and performed in 2009. I am also working towards a Women's Studies Certificate and intend to extend my knowledge of past and present women in music (in particular, women composers).
