So proud of my colleagues, who are in Iceland presenting on a #musictheory / #mtped community engagement project that Elise conceived four years ago! That many years later, the project is going strong with the involvement of students and faculty in music and engineering!

HUGE shout out to @ubwdance for their brilliant class in the Dept. of Theatre and Dance @UDelaware and @udcas yesterday. Inspiring, engaging, energetic, and electrifying to watch, listen, and learn from. Thank you!! So impressed with all the work being done in the @UDDanceMinor!

@Komaniecki_R D all the way, but I'm biased.

For my next project, I will be ranking all of the musical notes from worst to best, starting with my bottom choice, the wretched B♭

The Arts@UD warmly welcome #UArts and #DCAD students to continue their studies @UDelaware. Curious? Please attend our open house tomorrow (6/10) at 4 p.m. (link below) or see the second link for more info. udel.zoom.us/meeting/regist… facebook.com/photo/?fbid=85…

@Komaniecki_R My family came *this* close to visiting the Very Large Array during our travels last summer. I love that book and movie. "They should have sent a poet." Best line ever.

I really liked reading Carl Sagan's "Contact," finding out they made a movie based on it, and discovering that the movie was also made with great care, imagination, and wonder

@Komaniecki_R For a stronger surface, I bet she used lead paint. Sliced apples, anyone?

I know this woman did not just paint her countertops white

@chriswmwhite My copy is on the way! Congratulations, Chris. What an amazing achievement.

My book won an award!

@JohnChinte @Komaniecki_R Perhaps the thing I like *least about the viio7/vi that Robert points out is that it (as a chromatic color) both arrives "too soon" and, in doing so, undercuts the use of the vii%7/V a bit later.

@JohnChinte @Komaniecki_R Ultimately, I find the chromatic chord more musically interesting, and that it allows us to experience/feel the text (as we sing it) in a more special way. (And yet, I agree that the viio7/vi isn't nearly as effective.)

Lately every arrangement of “Silent Night” reharmonizes this to a secondary dominant on “hea-”over a chromatically ascending bass line that leads to a minor six chord on “peace” and it sucks

@pmgentry This is pretty much the same feeling that every pianist has right before their first solo recital.

Wish my daughter luck today, she signed up to play a piano piece at her afterschool program showcase this afternoon. (She has does not know how to play piano; never had a lesson in her life.)

To the #mtped community: please forward the job posting below to anyone seeking employment, or DM with questions about the position. We are excited to identify candidates who share the School of Music's commitment to innovative, student-centered pedagogy. careers.udel.edu/cw/en-us/job/5…

@Komaniecki_R Prokofiev Piano Sonata No. 7, iii. Curious if that fits the bill.

What’s a piece of music that’s in an asymmetrical time signature that grooves simply and effortlessly? Like, something that’s in an unusual meter but you can still move to it without thinking much

There's a rumor that somebody got excited during Tchaik 5

Pleased to share a recent article and video about the work I'm doing with my #musictheory students @UDelaware. Please encourage any parents of children with #Autism that live in or around Delaware to consider participating in this study! udel.edu/udaily/2023/ma…
