Wiley Hitchcock Institute for Studies in American Music, managing editor of the American Music Review, and a Student Representative for the GNY chapter of AMS. After earning her B.A. and graduating with honors in musicology from Oberlin Conservatory of Music in 2005, she received her M.A. in musicology from Queens College in 2008. At Oberlin, she was awarded the James H. Hall Prize in Music History. Rachael’s primary research interests encompass several U.S. popular music genres, including rock and roll, rap, techno, funk, and pop, and she expects to write her dissertation on remixes, covers, and rap versions. She also enjoys studying the progression of the classical symphony, symphonic poems, and 20th-century Western art music.

She primarily works with materials related to popular music, organs, music theory, and jazz. Outside of her work and studies, Rachael enjoys playing the piano, hiking, drawing, and baking homemade desserts. |
