Corey Ellis Interview
No full textCorey Ellis (Class of 2022, M.S. 2023) was interviewed by Amanda Sun via the Zoom internet-based video conferencing software on August 9, 2023. Mr. Ellis was born in Fort Worth and grew up in a military family. Growing up, SMU had no presence in Mr. Ellis’ community, though he had a positive impression of the university upon his first tour, as it was located in a quiet place and was close to his family. Mr. Ellis discusses his initial impression when he arrived at SMU and realized it was predominantly white, but describes getting along with the first few people he met, while also feeling a barrier and possibly culture shock. Despite this, Mr. Ellis became heavily involved with the university, becoming a Computer Science and Mathematics tutor, peer mentor with Thrive Scholars, and a Lyle Student Senator. Mr. Ellis discusses his journey into discovering his voice, and some of the roadblocks he came across in doing so. He describes how he felt pressure to disprove stereotypes about Black men and how that pressure contributed to his social life suffering his first few years. Mr. Ellis explains the microaggressions he faced during his time at SMU, including others assuming he did not attend the school when walking around campus or at events. He was concerned that speaking out would cost him his scholarship, and also that he felt like he had to prove he was worthy of the scholarship to his white classmates. Mr. Ellis talks about how he taught himself not to compete with other Black students, something he felt he had to do going into college. He also discusses his attempts as Lyle Student Senator to provide class recordings to provide accommodations for students in general, but especially athletes, and how the idea was dismissed despite Lyle classrooms having the equipment necessary to provide recordings. He speaks to communication barriers stemming from staff and faculty assuming socioeconomic situations or privileges that not every student has, and critiques what he describes as complacency among university administration that he feels prevents long-term change on campus. Despite his negative experiences, Mr. Ellis talks about how his time at SMU helped him become more independent and learn to speak out. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Mathematics with a minor in Japanese, and received a Masters in Computer Science the following year. At time of recording, Mr. Ellis was working with Allstate as a Full Stack Developer

Unveiling Melodies in Shadows: An Analysis of Swedish Female Composer Amanda Maier’s Sonata for Violin and Piano in B Minor
No full textAmanda Maier (1853−1894), a pioneering Swedish violinist and composer of the late nineteenth century, holds a unique place in music history as the first-ever female music director in Sweden. Despite her significant achievements, her compositions have remained relatively unknown. Therefore, the document aims to illuminate Amanda Maier's violin works, focusing on investigating her violin sonata in terms of violin performance and pedagogy. Specifically, the study offers insights into the performance techniques employed and provides other pertinent pedagogical suggestions for each movement. The document features an introductory chapter and a review of the historical context of Maier's life and the violin sonata. Subsequent chapters shift the focus to performance practice and pedagogical suggestions with theoretical analysis. One distinctive feature of the study is the inclusion of practice exercises composed originally by the author, tailored specifically to the techniques found in the sonata. These exercises aid practitioners in incorporating Maier's violin sonata into their program. The study assists violinists in diversifying their performance and teaching literature. It seeks to inspire renewed appreciation for Amanda Maier's artistic legacy because it is important to recognize the remarkable contributions of women in the classical music industry, and Amanda Maier, an underrepresented composer, exemplifies this. The document not only contributes to music research but also enhances pedagogical practices, fostering a more inclusive and equitable environment for female composers in the classical music world
