JUDITH COE RECEIVES FULBRIGHT AWARD Judy
Coe received a Fulbright Scholar’s Award for research she
will conduct in Ireland beginning this September for the academic
year. Coe will
be hosted by the University of Limerick in the Irish World Music
Centre (IWMC), and will travel around the country doing interviews
with students and faculty, observing regional pedagogies and singing
styles, and listening to and making music with Irish musicians.
Her project will explore alternative expressions in Irish music
and song, and will examine sean-nós (Irish traditional “old-style”)
singing and pedagogy, and how those traditions inform and transform
other musical genres, including the creative work of emerging pop
musicians and singer/songwriters, electronic and experimental musicians,
and classical/cross-over genres. |

an abstract painter). Laine will be included in the June 2006 issue
of Black & White magazine, where she’s been
chosen as one of the fifteen hottest young photographers in the
country. |
