Gabrielle Cornish is Assistant Professor of Musicology at the Mead Witter School of Music. Her research broadly considers music and everyday life in the Soviet Union. In particular, her monograph-in-progress, Socialist Noise: Sound and Soviet Identity after Stalin, traces the intersections between music, technology, and the politics of socialist modernity during the Cold War. Her research in Russia has been supported by the Fulbright Program, Title VIII, and the Cohen-Tucker Dissertation Research Fellowship from the Association for Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies. Prior to joining the faculty at Wisconsin, she was Assistant Professor of Musicology at the University of Miami.
