Music and Musicality in Shakespeare - a video by Andrew Bretz (1975-2018).

Here’s a link to one of Andrew Bretz’s fine videos, This one, about music in, and the musicality of, Shakespeare. It had only 69 views as of this morning, but is deserving of many more.

Andrew and I followed one another on Twitter; he was Acting Project Coordinator for the Canadian Shakespeare Association, taught in the English Department at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, and produced a number of interesting, helpful and polished videos about Shakespeare and other subjects related to literature and writing.

Andrew died on Tuesday, August 21. He was only 42 years old.

His family has set up a fund for a scholarship in his name, to which I'll provide a link in the first comment below this post.

The English Department at Queens U also noted his passing and has resources for students and faculty who are mourning his death. I'll put a link there in another comment below this post.
