Abstract
Abstract During a lifelong journey of studying stories, I have increasingly moved toward a focus on the intersection of personal and public narrative, “the inside and outside of knowledge” (Hearne, 2015). Here I use stories to explore three questions: What happened to make a musician into a nonmusician, what happened next, and why might that matter? I’ve processed those questions through mixed genres: auto-ethnography, family history, retrospective, narrative research, and commentary by poets and memoirists. What evolved is a personalized case study of the life, death, and reincarnation of a musical sensibility.
