Yay, Music History majors! That's the route I took, and although I initially doubted my decision, I ended up not regretting it at all. Michelle Fillion is an amazing prof and advisor.

Any ideas on what your thesis will be?

good to hear. i'm a little apprehensive but i think it'd be a great thing to do. no idea yet what my topic would be, but i'd *really* like to go off the beaten track. you wrote yours on the doukobor's music, right? any suggestions?

Well, there are so many wonderful, meaty topics to choose from. You really should go for something that speaks to you personally, and ideally, something that you have some prior knowledge of and/or experience with. I would strongly recommended avoiding anything to do with the courtesan or women's roles in opera.. it's been done to DEATH, as has anything to do with Beethoven or Wagner ( ... )

agreed on the opera role topics... even though they're tempting. i think that a gendered analysis of something specifically canadian would be a big, goopy, glorious "why" mudpuddle to dig around in. i went to see Michelle today and she was very encouraging. what a great lady. will you go on and do a masters do you think?

thanks for your thoughts. :)
