J. Aaron Hardwick

Orchestra Director and Assistant Professor of Music, Wake Forest University
James “Aaron” Hardwick has established a reputation as an outstanding conductor, educator, and collaborator — setting himself apart with his engaging, charismatic and musically precise approach on and off the podium. Highly versatile and musically insightful, his artistic collaborations span multiple genres including standard classical repertoire, musical theater, opera, video game music, popular music, and new works.

As a Professional Conductor & Musician

Hardwick has worked with the Winston-Salem Symphony, Ruebush Brass Ensemble, Brevard Philharmonic, Rochester Philharmonic, Williamsburg Symphony, Aiken Symphony Orchestra, CICA (Collaborations in Contemporary Art) Ensemble, Shenandoah Conservatory Symphony, University of South Carolina Symphony Orchestra, East Carolina University Symphony Orchestra, Bay Youth Orchestras of Virginia, among others. He was a finalist for the 2021 Erno Lányi International Conducting Competition and participated in the 2020 European Union International Conducting Competition. He is an Eastman School of Music Summer Conducting Fellow with the Rochester Philharmonic, and a two-time Conductor’s Institute of South Carolina Conducting Fellow. As a professional violist, he has performed with the New York City Ballet Company, Shenandoah Summer Music Theater, Shenandoah Conservatory Symphony, University of South Carolina (UofSC) Opera, UofSC Symphony Orchestra, Brevard Philharmonic and Aiken Symphony Orchestras.

Concerning Video Games & Music

In 2020, Hardwick developed the first Video Game Music course offered at Shenandoah University bridging the gap between the Shenandoah Conservatory and Shenandoah University School of Business. Within a year, he led the first-ever research collaboration between music performance and esports entitled “We Play Together: A Collaboration between Music & Esports.” The project won the Shenandoah University Research Expo (SURE) Award and went on to be featured with the Esports Research Network (ERN) in Sweden. Most recently, he created, “Full Lobby, LLC” a company designed to build creative concert series for symphony orchestras that includes live performance of video game music, and new works. Hardwick is a casual and competitive gamer, former Apex Legends coach, and current advisor for the Wake Forest University Esports Association and Dash City Gaming in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

As an Educator

Passionate about collaboration and music education, Hardwick spearheaded the interdisciplinary concert series, “Paving the Way” with the Wake Forest Symphony Orchestra in 2022. The series seeks to change how symphonic music concerts are curated by collaborating with other scholars, building a narrative around the music that is performed, and elevating underrepresented composers and artists. He was named one of Hampton Roads’ “Most Outstanding Music Educators” two years in a row by the Virginia Symphony, was nominated by the Grammy Foundation® and the Recording Academy® as a quarterfinalist for the Music Educator Award in 2014, and received the Distinguished Music Educator’s Award from Yale University in 2011. He continues to work with youth ensembles, educators, and community members as a conductor and clinician.

As a Scholar

Published in 2021, his research entitled “Performing Game Sound: The American Symphony Orchestra and Video Game Music” explores live Video Game Music performance by symphonies and how Video Game Music can help orchestras diversify programming, build audiences and audience engagement, and aid in financial sustainability. His article “A Walkthrough: Connecting Gaming and Your Performance Ensembles” was featured in the North Carolina Music Educators Journal (Summer 2022) and explores how music teachers can engage with their students through video game music. He continues to teach and develop the Video Game Music class, (now taught at Wake Forest University) which has been host to a number of leading video game composers. His research and future publications grow as he continues to develop this course.

Concerning Credentials

Hardwick received his Doctor of Musical Arts in Performance (Conducting) at Shenandoah Conservatory. He earned a Master’s Degree in Orchestral Conducting from the University of South Carolina and a Bachelor’s Degree in Music from East Carolina University. He also holds a Graduate Certificate in Esports Management from Shenandoah University. He is a professional conductor and recently appointed Orchestra Director and an Assistant Professor of Music at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, NC.

J. Toby Reiner

Associate Professor of Political Science, Dickinson College
I teach and research contemporary political theory at Dickinson College. In 2020, I published a book on Michael Walzer - Foundation Professor of Social Sciences at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, and Dissent editor emeritus - with Polity Press, as part of its Key Contemporary Thinkers series. I had earlier written my PhD thesis as an historical study of Walzer's thought. I received my PhD from the University of California, Berkeley, in 2011. I am currently writing a book on the concept of community. In 2023, I organized a conference on Walzer's book Spheres of Justice to celebrate the fortieth anniversary of its publication. I have an M. Phil in International Relations from University of Cambridge (2001). My major interests are in theories of justice and political ideologies. Some of my teaching and research is at the intersection of the two subfields; for example, I have published on just-war theory, global justice, and migration ethics. My planned next book connects the latter two themes. My teaching interests also include the history of political thought, comparative political theory, and ethics.

Jack Cooper

Doctoral researcher in Palaeobiology, Swansea University
I am a doctoral researcher at Swansea University studying the functional diversity of sharks through time. This involves examining ecological changes of sharks across the last 66 million years using fossil teeth.

I receive sponsorship from the Fisheries Society of the British Isles and am a member of the Pimiento Research Group, which aims to assess extinction mechanisms of marine megafauna such as sharks through time. The ultimate goal of the team is to use this information to inform ongoing conservation efforts.

Additionally, I engage in outreach of shark palaeobiology through a variety of ways. My outreach, as well as previous work I have published, primarily focuses on the iconic megalodon sharks, its biology and ecology, and what the extinction of this apex predator could tell us about the effects of future shark losses.

Jack Williams

PhD Student in Department for Music, University of Bristol
During my time at university, I have had many interests in musicology, but my main interest has always been in pop music and pop culture. Currently, I am a 2nd year PhD student at the University of Bristol, researching the disco revival during the pandemic and how nostalgia and escapism influenced music. My overall interest in pop music tends to focus on music created or celebrated by minorities, however, I also find the concept of 'what is popular' fascinating. In my personal life, I am an avid fan of pop music and keep up to date with the releases from many artists, and I find this relationship between fan and artist interesting and would like to research it. My previous research has looked at Madonna's use of disco in 2005, as well as Black musical canon creation in the music of Lizzo and Janelle Monáe. I am also a keen follower of music award shows and find the institutionalisation of musical achievement an area that needs constant research and attention.

Research interests specifically would include; pop music, revivals, award shows, cultural commentary in music, music from queer experiences, chart music.
