The Intersections of Music and Food -- Master's Thesis 2021

​

Recipe and score; ingredients and instrumentation; cookbooks and masterworks- these items are comparatively different, but share a similarity in the way they are created. Music and food share a history that isn’t explicitly detailed. Rather, it is shown through context clues- hidden in iconography, fables and treatises. The music of this recital is inspired by the music we make while cooking. Listeners are invited to enjoy a virtual and immersive listening experience that combines sound design and original music composed for acoustic performance.

"The Power and Beauty of Process" -- 2021 Master Class

In collaboration with Bass Players for Black Composers, Mason delivers a master class discussing the ways in which she finds power and beauty in her processes as an artist.
