Music Therapy's Application On Developmental Milestones Throughout Childhood And Adolescence, Paige Whisler, Sarah Daughtrey

The Agora

New Mexico State University’s Bachelor of Arts in Pre-Music Therapy is a relatively new degree, and awareness of music therapy's definition, applications, and profound impact remains limited for many. Music therapy is a clinical and evidence-based practice that can foster change and improvement for diverse needs and goals across all age groups. In particular, children and adolescents can benefit significantly from music therapy, as it supports developmental milestones crucial to their growth. Treatment plans build upon a clear understanding of milestones for effective interventions and tailor techniques and applications to age-appropriate expectations. Completed in partial fulfillment of the Bachelor of …

Live Music Events: The Lived Experiences For People With Disabilities, Miya Y. Rodriguez, Susan Macdermott

Spring 2025 OTD Capstone Symposium

Live music events present barriers to people with disabilities, limiting participation and full engagement at these events. This capstone project aimed to understand the lived experience of people with disabilities at live music events. A mixed methods research study and optional interview to gather data were used. Through thematic analysis, three themes were presented: physical barriers, more than just music, and the lack of education on invisible disabilities. These outcomes from the research express additional accommodations centered around physical barriers, an understanding that there are more occupations at these events besides just the music, and a need for more inclusion …

“En Clave” Tania León And Roberto Sierra: Autochthonous Music Of Cuba And Puerto Rico, Contemporary Music Composition And The ‘Puente’ In Between, Omar A. Ramirez

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

This document is in two parts. The first examines selected works of Latin-American composers Tania León and Roberto Sierra. Both composers cite their cultural background as a force that shapes their artistic expression. Many of their works are titled in Spanish, with compositions referencing their homelands in subject and narrative, and incorporate the autochthonous music(s) of Cuba and Puerto Rico. Elements of these afrodiasporic musical traditions can be found in their works: Alegre, Batá, Stride, (León), Loiza, and Concerto for Viola (Sierra), each examined here.

Autochthonous musical elements are highlighted in score excerpts and described using …

Composition Portfolio, Carlos Alberto Arellano Martinez

Music ETDs

To fulfill the requirements of the UNM Master Theory-Composition Program, this thesis portfolio includes the following pieces:

Eco IV, for oboe, Bb clarinet, alto saxophone, bass clarinet, and bassoon. This piece explores my concept of meta-instrument, which combines two or more

instruments to create a new one. In Eco IV I explored proportional notation, impulses, attacks, elision in gestures, pitch order, transitions, and noise. The piece was

performed by Splinter Reeds at the 2023 John Donald Robb Composer´s Symposium. With this work, I fulfill the requirement of a work using orchestra, chamber

orchestra, or wind ensemble.
