September has been an exciting month.
My September Socks are going well. I am past the toe and about 3 pattern sets into the foot. It's going a little slower than I want. Then I remember that I'm doing 2 at a time. So, I'm really going twice as fast.
Paper Plans...
I'm taking 3 Musicology classes this semester. I know, I'm crazy, but I'm trying to get through the course work.
Medieval Music, Women in Music, and Introduction to Ethnomusicology.
I'm starting to think about paper topics. I'm curious about how music is thought about in society. In tribal, community focused, societies music is part of their everyday life. In developed societies, music is commercialized and extra. We are bombarded by soundtracks and music is not sacred or a mystery of the gods. I'm not sure.
But how does that get me a paper in Medieval Music. I can look at a codex or some chant or compare 2 composers from the same time and place. or something. This paper is shorter one, which is good.
At least I'm starting to think about them.
