Graduate Student

Elizabeth Romero is currently seeking a Ph.D. in Historical Musicology at CU Boulder. Her research interests include strategies of narrative in music, the piano music of Robert Schumann and Frederic Chopin, music and religion, and progressive rock. Her master鈥檚 thesis, 鈥淭he Kansas Band鈥檚 Musical Depiction of Spiritual Quests鈥 combines many of these research interests and analyzes five songs. She received a Master鈥檚 degree in music theory from the University of Northern baby直播app, and she earned a Bachelor of Arts in music from Regis University.

It was however during her time at home where much of her music discoveries took place. She learned to play the piano at age two before she said her first word at age three, and she would often play whatever she heard, especially the music of Pink Floyd. One of her favorite activities is composing new music alongside her talented older sister. One of the experiences Elizabeth credits as an inspiration to her education is the myriad of conversations she would have with her father regarding the meaning of music, its lyrics, and how they relate to people鈥檚 experiences.
