Appel de conférences pour le colloque « Celebrating Tui St. George Tucker at 100. A Symposium », Appalachian State University, 15-16 septembre 2024.

« Exploring how American female-identified musicians flourished from the mid to late 20th century provides a way to cultivate our understanding of their creative lives.  What were their networks of support?  From where did they find inspiration? Who were their collaborators? In what ways did their lifestyle lead to their flourishing?

Composer and professional recorder player Tui St. George Tucker is an example of a creative 20th-century female musician who flourished due to various personal and professional connections.  In her obituary in the Journal of the American Recorder Society, friends and colleagues referenced her talent for bringing people together and her insistence on speaking her mind–”risking all for a tractor-beam-like contact of personal communication.”

To celebrate her life and career in her 100th year, the paper sessions of this conference seek to broaden and explore the networks in which Tui St. George Tucker flourished. »
