The Changing Attitudes Toward Consonance And Dissonance In Various Historical Periods, Edith H. Carter Jan 1945

The Changing Attitudes Toward Consonance And Dissonance In Various Historical Periods, Edith H. Carter

Graduate Thesis Collection

The problem of consonance and dissonance has intrigued and baffled theorists since the days of Pythagoras. There are many aspects of the problem which have never been satisfactorily explained.

Experimental Studies In Junior High School Monotonism, Lina Baldauf Knight Jan 1941

Experimental Studies In Junior High School Monotonism, Lina Baldauf Knight

Graduate Thesis Collection

The individual who lacks the use of his voice as a musical instrument lacks the natural, fundamental medium of musical expression. Not only does he lack the means for the closest and most direct relationship with music, but also there is a serious danger that, as a result, his whole range of musical appreciation will be impaired and finally obliterated. This is likely to occur because he does not have at his command and under his control this power which he so definitely needs. Children who are thus handicapped are often designated by the use of the word monotone.

Junior High School Music The Vital Link Between Required And Elective Music, Mary Z. Zenor

Graduate Thesis Collection

The junior high school as such is a comparatively new part of the modern educational system.  As, with all new things, it began as an experiment; and as with all worthwhile things, innovations are constantly being tried out, rejected, or accepted.  Much has been said about the junior high as a link between the elementary grades and senior high school, as a period of orientation, as a time of physical as well as psychological change.

The Effect Of Music On Mental Deficiency, Russell E. Goucher Jan 1939

The Effect Of Music On Mental Deficiency, Russell E. Goucher

Graduate Thesis Collection

In this research we are concerning ourselves with the problem of the validity of tests. What is accomplished in measuring ones intelligence and how does this effect his study of music? Is there a connection between music and the other subjects in his curriculum? If there is a connection and tests are of great value to us then we are justified in saying that a child can study music because he has a high "I. Q." But then what of the many children with a low "I. Q.?" Couldn't music be of benefit to them? Perhaps in many cases music …


Music Students In Academic Subjects, Harold E. Winslow Jan 1939

Music Students In Academic Subjects, Harold E. Winslow

Graduate Thesis Collection

For some time music teachers in high schools have been told that students who maintain good grades in music are seldom good at anything else.  It was this challenge that prompted the present study - not with any idea of proving that music students are better or worse than students in any other academic subjects, but rather to ascertain just how music students stand in their own subjects.

John Milton's Conception Of Music, Lotys Benning Jan 1931

John Milton's Conception Of Music, Lotys Benning

Graduate Thesis Collection

The nature of music has been defined as the uttering and arousing of emotions by successions and combinations of regulated sound, that of poetry as the representation or arousing of emotions by means of verbal signs arranged with musical regularity.  Thus it will be seen that the two arts, having the same purpose, are closely allied, and may be considered interdependent.
