Sculptural Furniture, Gary Galbraith
Sculptural Furniture, Gary Galbraith
All Master's Theses
The artist should employ his sense of playful experimentation that requires the re-investigation of old manners and styles. I have attempted to apply the imagination of my senses to the furniture object in order to satisfy other human needs aside from comfort. These artistic requirements remove the piece of furniture from the realm of neutrality and tastefulness and expect the viewer - user to experience visual communication.

Stylistic Characteristics Of Randall Thompson's Choral Music, Robert Hugh Creigh
All Master's Theses
Randall Thompson's choral music, widely performed by professional groups, colleges, and choirs from public schools, establishes this composer as one of the foremost in contemporary music.

Utilization Of The Frame Loom For Weaving In The Secondary School, Bonnie Jean Powell
Utilization Of The Frame Loom For Weaving In The Secondary School, Bonnie Jean Powell
All Master's Theses
Creating weavings on the frame loom is an important method to be investigated in that it is possible to create complex and creative forms without using the intricate process of the harness loom. Because frame loom weaving has so many advantages for secondary art students, it should be investigated and explained so that future teachers, who have had little or no experience with it, could see its value and teach it to their own students.

Characteristics Of Style In The Song Cycle Don Quichotte À DulcinéE, Bruce Gyger Dodge

As Don Quichotte à Dulcinée is representative of contemporary vocal literature, an investigation into its style characteristics would seem to have value.

The Superintendent's Point Of View Concerning Music In The High Schools Of Washington State, Morris Ray Pedersen

It can only be shared through communication. The place of music within the curriculum will be understood through this communication between the music educator and the chief administrator. It shall be the purpose of this study to encourage the shared philosophy and communication relationship between school music educators and their administrators.

A History Of The Events Leading To The Establishment Of The First State Normal School In America, Harold E. Ring
All Master's Theses
During the decades of the 1820's and 1830's, educators in this country studied the European schools where the principles of Johann H. Pestalozzi (1746-1827), Friedrick Froebel (1782-1852), and Emanuel Fellenberg (1771-1844) had been put into practice with favorable results. The Prussian normal schools established by Frederick the Great were some of the best in the world.
