- Description:
- In 1966, David Baker, a Black man and esteemed jazz musician and composer, created and developed the Jazz Studies program at Indiana University (IU). The purpose of this study was to investigate how David Baker came to join the faculty and created the Jazz Studies program at IU through an examination of the school’s course offerings and historical context between the years 1949–1969. This time period captures when jazz was evolving from its roots as an informally learned art form into one that was taught in academic settings, as well as important evolutionary moments in jazz, specifically the transition from bebop and cool jazz through the development of hard bop, modal jazz, and Third Stream. Finally, it captures the tumultuous Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s which coincided with IU’s hiring of David Baker and the school’s decision to begin to include jazz courses in its curricular offerings. This examination concludes with a discussion of relevant implications for jazz and music education.

- Description:
- While looking through the Hoagy Carmichael Collection at the Archives of Traditional Music at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana, I came across a musical manuscript that featured a children’s choir with chamber orchestra. I could find no mention of this work, “Old Glory,” in the published literature. The discovery of “Old Glory” prompted the proposition of three questions: 1) What evidence suggests that Hoagy Carmichael was the composer of “Old Glory?” 2) For what person or purpose was “Old Glory” written? 3) Why was “Old Glory” never published or recorded? To answer these questions, I engaged in historical research processes involving emersion, intensive study of primary and secondary sources, a process of verification as prescribed by Gottschalk, and harmonic analyses of “Old Glory” and other works by Carmichael. The findings of this research support the conclusion that Hoagy Carmichael likely composed “Old Glory” and may have worked in collaboration with an orchestrator for its creation. “Old Glory” is patriotic and bears similarities to other works by Carmichael including the final movement of his “Johnny Appleseed Suite,” a multi-movement work for which “Old Glory” may have originally been composed. Carmichael did not publish or record any of his orchestral works, demonstrating an established precedence. Possible reasons that he did not publish “Old Glory” could include the technical difficulties inherent in the work or feelings of self-doubt caused by negative reviews of his first orchestral composition, “Brown County Autumn.” The discovery of “Old Glory” constitutes a valuable addition to music education as a new work that should be taught and performed. This research also contributes to the literature by identifying the orchestrator of “Brown County Autumn” as Eugene Zádor.

- Description:
- In his book, Music Education in an Age of Virtuality and Post-Truth, Woodford presents a welcomed discussion of the aims of music education in a time of political unrest. This timely text is needed due to the stresses of the current political climate in which students are “seldom encouraged to seriously question or otherwise challenge the existing political system” (p. 2). Woodford’s consideration of contemporary political phenomena sheds new light on issues related to arts education policy implementation as well as intersections of music education and students’ lived experiences. Throughout this text, Woodford questions the current application of democratic values in music education, condemns the misuse of art in contemporary politics, and explains the purposes of a liberal music education. Woodford addresses current social and political issues that impact music educators and anticipates future problems so that they might “better defend themselves and their students, and ultimately democratic society, from those who would pervert the purpose of education by reducing it to job training and/or thought control” (p. 10). After providing an overview of the book and a summary of each chapter, we offer our reflections of the author’s points and extensions for consideration. Specifically, we reflect on how generalizing the views of political populations might be problematic and how the inclusion of multiple perspectives might enhance a liberal music education. We then propose possibilities for how Woodford’s liberal music education might look in K–12 classrooms and pose questions related to the presentation of this book in collegiate music education courses.

6. An Unintended Language Barrier: Translating performance practice through notation

- An Unintended Language Barrier: Translating performance practice through notation
- Creator:
- Signor, Alexandra
- Description:
- Among young musicians, there is an emerging language barrier between those who can read hand-written notation and those who cannot. There are two main reasons for this- the commercialization of music publishing and the abandonment of the aural tradition in secondary and collegiate education. The author has compiled a series of examples to translate hand-written notation to modern notation and gives in depth explanations of the origins of these reading deficiencies and how we can work to remedy them through the thorough instruction of pre-service teachers in jazz pedagogy.
