Composers Forum is a daily web log that allows invited contemporary composers to share their thoughts and ideas on any topic that interests them--from the ethereal, like how new music gets created, music history, theory, performance, other composers, alive or dead, to the mundane, like getting works played and recorded and the joys of teaching. If you're a professional composer and would like to participate, send us an e-mail.
Record companies, artists and publicists are invited to submit CDs to be considered for review. Send to: Jerry Bowles, Editor, Sequenza 21, 340 W. 57th Street, 12B, New York, NY 10019
Kyle Gann, who been talking a lot about Updown/Downtown lately has posted a response on his own blog to Galen Brown's post below. In some ways, he also addresses Beth Anderson's comment(under Galen's post) about women and jobs in academia. Judging from Kyle's experience it's not that much easier to get a solid teaching job even if you're happen to be male.
