Robin Wallace

Robin Wallace has taught musicology at Baylor University since 2003. He has loved the music of Beethoven his entire life, and has written books, articles, and blog posts about the composer. Because his late wife Barbara, who passed away in 2011, was deaf during the last part of her life, he has had a unique opportunity to study deafness up close, and he applies what he learned to the composer's life and work in his latest book, Hearing Beethoven: A Story of Musical Loss and Discovery. He has also brought his passion for teaching to bear in creating a unique introductory textbook, Take Note: An Introduction to Music through Active Listening. He lives in Woodway, TX, and enjoys cooking, photography, travel, and playing the piano.
