Mark A. Clague
Associate Professor of Musicology and Director of the University of Michigan Gershwin Initiative
Rediscovering Gershwin: Insights and Discoveries from the U-M Gershwin Initiative
Mark Clague researches all forms of music making in the United States, with recent projects focusing on the United States national anthem, American orchestras as institutions (especially in early Chicago and San Francisco), the Atlanta School of composers, Sacred Harp music and performance, and the music of George and Ira Gershwin. Dr. Clague’s interests center on questions of how music forges and shapes social relationships, and the art of sound as simultaneously a transcendent emotional expression and an everyday tool for living. In addition to his scholarly pursuits, Dr. Clague serves as Director of Entrepreneurship and Career Services and directs the EXCEL (Excellence in Entrepreneurship, Career Empowerment, and Leadership) Program for U-M's School of Music, Theatre & Dance. Dr. Clague’s City Club presentation will feature live piano accompaniment.
