I am a professor of musicology at the University of Alberta, a music critic, and rock musician. My main research interests are Viennese music and culture, popular music, aesthetics, music and psychoanalysis, and film music. I am the editor of "Schoenberg in Context" (Cambridge University Press) and co-editor of "Echoes of Tartini" (Böhlau Verlag, forthcoming).
