Episode 1 of Season 4 of the Sounding Jewish Podcast featuring Dr. Uri Schreter is now available wherever you get your podcasts! We discuss the precarious bike ride through Cambridge that led Uri to embrace scholarship on Klezmer, and how being a musician can sometimes get you into rewarding spaces to engage in musicological inquiry. Give us a listen, and don’t forget to rate, review, and subscribe! 😎

Sooner than I can believe, our time in Milwaukee has come to an end. Before sharing news of our next steps, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on our time here.

Living an eleven-minute walk to the beaches of Lake Michigan, a thirty-minute walk to work at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee’s Stahl Center for Jewish Studies, and an hour and a half drive from Chicago has been a very special experience. But without a doubt, it is the incredible people in our lives - our friends and family who visited (or tried to visit) us here, our friends who live here and seamlessly invited us into their orbit (I’m looking at you Stein family!), and the colleagues and new friendships that blossomed here - that have made this such a special place to be.

Milwaukee will always be where I faced the confusion and anxiety that woman scholars experience when they are on the job market and don’t know how much they should share about being pregnant with colleagues or prospective employers. It will always be where I taught in classrooms beyond New York for the first time. It will always be where I benefited from the kind of passionate and invaluable mentorship with Joel and Rachel that I haven’t experienced since my PhD. It will always be where our daughter was born.

We may be leaving Milwaukee now for our next big adventure, but this city will always have a very special place in our hearts and history.

[1/2] What a ride.
Hace exactamente un mes cerré (creo) el trayecto homérico de mi vida académica. También un viaje en todas las esferas de lo personal. En 2018 empezó una andanza que no sabía a dónde me iba a llevar ni hasta qué punto sería transformador en todos los aspectos posibles. De adolescente me gustaba la frase de la canción “este cuarto es muy pequeño para las cosas que sueño”, y de pronto salí de uno y muchos cuartos para alcanzar un mundo que se antojaba inexpugnable, un mundo al que no pertenecía y que me costó empezar a llamar mío. Y sin embargo sería banal, casi ridículo, tratar de capturar en palabras ese camino. Absurdo intentar recorrer los lugares comunes poniendo palabras ya sobadas. Con lo que me quedo, después de todo y todos, son las sensaciones. Con los primeros seminarios y sus palabras incomprensibles, con cómo lo inteligible se fue convirtiendo en realidad y las risas fueron traduciéndose en afectos a ritmo lento (a veces desesperante). La primera vez que hice pan, las nevadas de Cambridge y cómo todo se teñía de color blanco y gris entre ladrillo rojo. Los inviernos que duran toda su longitud y algún día más y lo fértil para las ideas de esa hibernación forzosa. Las estaciones del año que revuelven Cambridge, el otoño y sus mil colores, la primavera que recuerda que hay vida fuera. La soledad y el silencio que poco a poco se habitaron y aprendí a habitar conmigo. Los pájaros de la primavera, este último año, piando sin tregua mientras bajaba en bici la cuesta de Lakeview Avenue con las últimas luces de la tarde. La ventana desde donde miré cambiar las estaciones, desde donde vi las ardillas y los pájaros y escribí muchas páginas de lo que ahora es una tesis.

Not quite ready to write that end-of-year post, as I’m still digesting the last couple weeks… A chaos of travel and music and exhaustion and really beautiful moments with new and old friends. True to form, I’ve been a terrible documentarian. So many images that I never snapped but are etched in my mind like photographs. The back and forth, concerts and wild times in Nashville and Boston and NYC in the last couple weeks.

I played music next to paintings at the MFA and finally met so many musicians and artists I’d been hoping to meet. I played at the wonderful @artsatthearmory with the incredible Ezekiels Wheels and @chaialeh , and was so lucky to have my Ladino nona Gloria Ascher come with the sweetest members of my Ladino enkontro & it was like having family in the audience that make you nervous and happy. I spent truly the most blissful days in the magical presence of @alisaamador & @littleoshima and their music & eyes on the world made me cry and opened my heart. I finally made it to @yiddishnewyork for one day and got to see and be inspired by so many people who I have such deep appreciation for.

Im so lucky to have so many incredible friends who feed me and let me crash in their apartments and inspire me with how they spend their time and recommend the best coffee and the best croissant (outside of Paris) and some of them even have a half-inch 4 track tape machine in their bedrooms, just for the inspiration (thank you @michael.daves )😂 A snapshot from the road and a messy love letter to the people I couldn’t have survived this month without. I’ve mentioned a few here, but there are so many. Thank you thank you.
