MA Thesis: The Role of Recurrent Melismas in the Alleluias of the St Gall Cantatorium

Why Dal?

I chose Dalhousie because it seemed so full of opportunities, like a research assistantship on the Cantus Ultimus project. I have also been fortunate enough to study abroad in Germany for my second year in the program, which has been a fantastic adventure!

What Inspires Me?

Knowing that there is so much out there that we still don’t know inspires me, as do the many great people doing research to learn more about human history. I want to be one of them!
