Jonathan Goya — Scholar/Performer

Jonathan Goya

I'm a Baroque violinist and oboist and a PhD candidate in musicology at Case Western Reserve University. I study how music teachers work within the economic and political worlds around them, especially when they make their teaching available to students through mass media. My dissertation explores this question through Francesco Geminiani's Guida Armonica (1756), a composition exercise machine in the form of a book.

I was a founding member of Wit's Folly and I regularly play with the Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra, and I've taught music history at CWRU and Baldwin Wallace Conservatory. Before all this I was a computational biologist, and I taught biology and ran a chamber ensemble at Bard High School Early College-Manhattan.
