Research Interests: Comparative and evolutionary musicology. I am exploring various facets of music origins and universals; the connection between music and language in human cognitive development; the role of music in social evolution and functioning; music, ritual, and altered states of consciousness; and the preservation and renewal of indigenous oral and musical traditions. I am also a classical vocalist active in choral and solo performance.
