Performing The “Exotic?”: Constructing An Ethical World Music Ensemble, Juliet Hess
Performing The “Exotic?”: Constructing An Ethical World Music Ensemble, Juliet Hess
Visions of Research in Music Education
The Sankofa Drum and Dance Ensemble was a Ghanaian music ensemble that focused on Ewe music. I founded this ensemble in the elementary school where I taught in the Toronto area. From the time of its founding, one of the overarching goals I had for the group was a disruption of images and stereotypes that the students held of Africa in general, and more specifically, of Ghana. How did the students perceive Africa? Did the ensemble change their perceptions at all? How did my own positionality, as a white, Western woman enter the picture? How did students’ ensemble participation affect …
Finding A Place In Music Education: The Lived Experiences Of Music Educators With “Non-Traditional” Backgrounds, Rhoda Bernard
Finding A Place In Music Education: The Lived Experiences Of Music Educators With “Non-Traditional” Backgrounds, Rhoda Bernard
Visions of Research in Music Education
This study is a qualitative investigation of the perspectives of seven music educators with “nontraditional” backgrounds–individuals who play instruments that are not part of the traditional large ensemble, and/or those whose musical specialties lie in genres other than Western classical music–based on their lived experiences as preservice and in-service music educators. The three most robust themes from the interviews included: insecurities about previous training and background, striving for relevance, and flexibility. Coming to better understand the perspectives of music educators with “non-traditional” backgrounds contributes to two active streams in the current conversation in the field of music teacher education: the …

Rethinking Music "Appreciation", Marissa Silverman
Rethinking Music "Appreciation", Marissa Silverman
Visions of Research in Music Education
This study reflects upon and explains the strategies developed in teaching music appreciation in a large urban secondary school. These reflections were developed through an action research study that took place during the 2005-2006 school year. Taken in the broadest, possible view, this study is a small example of how globalization and its offshoots – diversity and multiculturalism – are inherently paradoxical. Fundamentally, these phenomena are characterized by trans-national flows of capital, labor, communications, and culture that tend to unite and broaden many aspects of peoples’ perspectives and identities – personal, creative, and musical. However, the same forces that power …

Chaos, Karen V. Lee
Visions of Research in Music Education
The author writes an autobiographical reflection after attending a hand drumming concert. The rhythmic grooves liberate her mind and body while she reflects on a major transition in her life. Writing helps her reflect on how the concert becomes a pedagogical context forthe emotional and intellectual chaos. In the end, autobiography moves her to gain a deeper understanding about how the pedagogical aspect from the concert enables change.
Musical Ability And Accent Imitation, Maria Murljacic
Musical Ability And Accent Imitation, Maria Murljacic
Honors Scholar Theses
This study investigates the intersection of musical ability and accent imitation, more specifically defining what factors cause a relationship between the two. The study was run on 50 participants, who each completed an accent imitation ability assessment, a musical ability assessment, and an articulation ability assessment. The scores for the accent imitation portion were rated by anonymous online raters. Each participant filled out a questionnaire on prior musical experience and were either classified as a musician or non-musician. The analysis found that those in the musician group performed better on the musical ability, articulation, and accent ability assessment than non-musicians. …
Utilizing Computer Programming To Analyze Post-Tonal Music: A Segmentation And Contour Analysis Of Twentieth-Century Music For Solo Flute, Kate Sekula
Doctoral Dissertations
Two concepts will be synthesized in this dissertation: 1) the creation of accessible computer applications for melodic segmentation and contour reduction and 2) the application of segmentation and contour reduction to analyze twentieth-century post-tonal works for unaccompanied flute. Two analytical methodologies have been chosen: James Tenney and Larry Polanski's Gestalt segmentation theory and Robert Schultz's refinement of Robert Morris's contour reduction algorithm. The investigation also utilizes Robert Schultz's concept of diachronic-transformational analysis in conjunction with contour reduction. While both segmentation and contour reduction are invaluable analytical tools, they are meticulous and time-consuming processes. Computer implementation of these algorithmic procedures produces …
