What was your favorite performance during your years at Oberlin?
I’ve loved performing with the orchestras here. When I sang Bartok with Sinfonietta and Mendelssohn with the Chamber Orchestra: It is such an amazing experience to be singing with an entire body of musical instruments behind you!

John Pearson’s “Paradox Concession ‘B’” (1988) and “Rendezvous Series” (1969) in the Tappan-facing foyer of Bibbins Hall here at the Conservatory.
Our performance in Clonick of Petros Klampanis’ arrangement of the Necessary Blonde. (I like this tune because viola gets the fun part)
This is beautiful!
After earning a music composition degree from Oberlin Conservatory and training at the Jacques Lecoq School of Physical Theatre in Paris, Aurora Nealand ’01, a saxophonist, clarinetist and singer who grew up in California, set out to bicycle across the country. She stopped, and stayed, in New Orleans in 2005. Enamored of traditional jazz from a young age, she apprenticed with several bands from the city’s Frenchmen Street-centered traditional jazz revival, including the Panorama Jazz Band, VaVaVoom and the New Orleans Moonshiners.

Do you have anyone in particular you would like to thank?
My mom, dad, and sister. They’re always so supportive of me and let me move at my own pace (which is generally a more relaxed pace). They’ve always trusted that I know what’s best for myself as a singer and as a young adult and are always willing to stand by my side for what I think is best for me… even if, for now, it’s taking a break from education to raise lions.

What do you like to do when you’re not singing?
When I’m free I love going shopping, watching movies, wine tasting, going to the gym, hanging out with my cats, cooking, and I have tons of fun going to parties.
