His research focuses on music in late Renaissance and early Baroque Italy,
with special attention to Florence on the one hand, and the music of Claudio
Monteverdi on the other; on Mozart's Italian operas; and most recently, on the
musicals of Rodgers and Hammerstein. He is particularly interested in music
and theater, in music printing and publishing, in musical and archival sources
and their interpretation, and in performers and performance practices.
