Scott Gleason teaches at Columbia and New York universities, and edits for Grove Music Online, The Open Space Magazine, and Perspectives of New Music. His writings on the history of music theory, music and philosophy, and new music appear in those and various other publications. His book project historicizes the Princeton School of composer-theorists.
Stefano Mengozzi is Associate Professor of Musicology at the University of Michigan. He has been doing research in the history of music theory for more than twenty years; most of his publications, one way or another, deal with writings about music from the Middle Ages and Renaissance; and he teaches history of theory courses on a regular basis. Mengozzi has experience organizing conferences and panels in his recent work as president of AMS-Midwest (2016-2018) and as session organizer for the UK Music and Philosophy Study Group (London, 2017) and for the Medieval Congress in Kalamazoo (in 2018 and 2019).
Stephanie Probst:  Since completing her PhD from Harvard University in May 2018, Stephanie Probst has held research fellowships at the Deutsches Museum in Munich and in the ERC-funded project “Sound and Materialism in the 19th Century” at the University of Cambridge. Currently, she is a Postdoc at the University of Potsdam. Her dissertation investigates intersections between music theory, psychology, and the visual arts in theories of melody in the 1920s (especially in the writings of Ernst Kurth, Ernst Toch, and Heinrich Schenker). A new project considers manual and mechanical forms of musical inscription around 1900 in music rolls for player pianos, melographs, and geometrical and artistic transcriptions of music. From 2016-19, she served as co-editor of the History of Music Theory blog of the SMT and AMS interest groups.
August Sheehy is Assistant Professor of Music History and Theory at Stony Brook University (SUNY). His research examines the relationship between music analysis and history, with a focus on German-speaking Europe between the French Revolution and WWII. He is particularly interested in the ways music theory and analysis connect musical experiences to other domains of knowledge and social life—e.g., politics and law, religion and theology, philosophy and psychology. His current book project, Sonata Politics, excavates the nineteenth-century cultural matrix from which Formenlehre emerged as a dominant paradigm in music theory. August’s other research interests include improvisation studies, jazz, and the music of Claude Debussy.
Abigail Shupe received her PhD from University of Western Ontario in 2015. She previously taught at the College of Wooster (Ohio) and is currently an Assistant Professor of Music Theory at Colorado State University in Fort Collins. Her research focuses on Rameau's experimentation and Newtonianism in Génération harmonique and 18th century science. She also studies relationships between music, war, and death in the work of George Crumb.  
John Snyder is Professor of Music Theory at the University of Houston. Editor of Theinred of Dover's De legitimis petachordorum et tetrachordorum (2006), Snyder has recently revised Leonard Ellinwood's 1936 edition and translation of Hermannus Contractus' Musica, with a new introduction, apparatus fontium, and detailed notes on the text and translation (University of Rochester Press, 2015). Snyder has also published on Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Schenker, the application of information theory to musical analysis  
Emily Zazulia is Assistant Professor of Music at the University of California, Berkeley, where she holds the Shirley Shenker Chair in the Humanities. Her research focuses on Medieval and Renaissance music—in particular, the intersection of complex notation, musical style, and intellectual history. Her most recent publications concern the historiography of Du Fay's Nuper rosarum flores (Journal of musicology, 2019) and the status of music theory in the work of Johannes Tinctoris and Antoine Busnoys (Journal of the American Musicological Society, 2018).  Zazulia received her Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 2012, where her dissertation was supported by an ACLS/Mellon Dissertation Completion Fellowship, an AMS 50 Fellowship, and a graduate readership at Harvard University’s Villa I Tatti. For her current book project, a wide-ranging study of notational aesthetics in polyphonic music, ca. 1330–1520, she received fellowships from the NEH and ACLS, with the additional distinction of having been named the first McClary/Walser ACLS fellow in music studies.
