Yocum Library Staff in the News: Steven Mathews

Steven Mathews, a part-time Yocum Library Assistant, presented a paper, called “Haydn and the Type 2 Sonata: Getting to the Crux in Three Slow Symphonic Movements from the 1760s,” at a meeting of the Haydn Society of North America in Vancouver, British Columbia on November 2. 

His paper was selected by peer review in August from a general call for papers among Haydn scholars worldwide. This presentation was a shorter version of a chapter on the music of Joseph Haydn (1732–1809) from his in-progress PhD dissertation (“Getting to the Crux of the Type 2 Sonata: Contextual Analyses of J. C. Bach, Haydn, Mozart, and Schubert”) in music theory from the University of Cincinnati.

Steven's reviews of periodicals carried by The Yocum Library regularly appear in his column Magazine Mondays on our Facebook page and our blog. Check them out!
