Elizabeth McLain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Elizabeth McLain is Assistant Professor of Musicology and Director of Disability Studies at Virginia Tech. She completed her Ph.D. and M.A. in Musicology at the University of Michigan. A proud Hokie, McLain earned a B.A. in Music and a B.A. in History at Virginia Tech. As a transdisciplinary scholar, McLain has two research areas. Her work on music and spirituality since 1870 confronts assumptions about secularization by deciphering the spiritual and religious references in modernist and postmodernist musical compositions. Devout, skeptical, mystical, or manipulative, a composer\u2019s spiritual journey remains relevant to understanding their works. Her doctoral dissertation was supported by a Lurcy Fellowship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The adventures they write represent creative arts-based research on opera that does not merely witness or reenact one author\u2019s story, but instead allows players to inhabit the operas, wrestle with exclusionary narratives, and craft their own hero\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
