iSIC EDUCATION ON WUOM:
'Festival of Song' Starts Eighth Year
Hopwood Play Tonight
Student Councils To Meet
By JOAN KAATZ
Beginning its eighth year, WU-
M's music education program,
Festival of Song," is a success.
This unique state-wide music
resentation, directed by Prof.
dythe M. Albert, provides,
Zrough radio, a music class for
,000 children in rural and con-
lidated schools throughout Mich-
,an.
The program is presented live on
'esday and Thursday eachcweek
r Washtenaw County school
iildren. It is then taped and sent
schools throughout the state.
Conducted as School
The class is conducted as an
dinary school hour with Prof.
[bert as, teacher. A quartet of
ur University music school stu-
ents acts as guests for the listen-
g audience.
The show, designed for elemen-
iry school children, is "an in-
ructional program, not a listen-
Lg program, in which the students
rng right along with the radio
uartet," according to Prof. Albert.
At the beginning of the school
ear books of songs are distributed
ithe schools for use when listen-
ig to the show. The books re-
mble those Prof. Albert would
se if he were teaching an ordinary
assroom.
Dances Explained
Not only are songs taught, but
ances and uses of rhythm instru-
.ents are explained by the radio
acher. The entire music- curricu-
m is set up by the radio station.
Various music experts and for-
ign singers help add variety to the
rogram. Last spring a well-known
ocean singer participated on the.
ogram, teaching the audience a
orean song and then singing the'
Americahn song, "Oh Susanna" as
Korean children do.
At the end of the school year
many of the participating schools
have their own "live" -song festi-
vals. Either the students put on
the show by themselves or the
school invites Prof. Albert and
group to come to the school and
perform.
Often Community Comes
"Not only do children attend this
performance, but often the whole
community turns up for the show.
In many places the only music edu-
cation to be found in the area is
our radio program," Prof. Albert
said.
The tqurs which the quartet
makes with the show often end up
being placement agencies for the
student members of the quartet.'
"Many school superintendents are
in such great need of music teach-
ers that they offer the students'
jobs right on the spot, knowing'
they have had good training on the
Festival of Song," Prof. Albert
said.
Students participating this year
include Fran Sekles, '58SM, Mary
McLoskey,
'58SM, and
.'59SM, Sue Leffler,
Robert Stasiuk, '58SM.
I
Many participating school teach-
ers have written the studio. They
say that the radio program helps
their children form good listening
habits which carry over into their
other subjects as well.
Lynn M. Bartlett, state superin-
tendent of public instruction this
year said that the program "is a
wonderful opportunity for schools
in Michigan to utilize the tremen-
dous pioneering work done by the
University in certain new tech-
niques of teaching."
Students and principals from
almost every high school in Mich-
igan will converge on campus to-
day for the 13th annual Michigan
Conference of Student Councils to
be held in Rackham Auditorium.
The event, sponsored by the
University, is directed by Donald
W. Dolan, General Consultant of
the Bureau of School Services.
Presiding at the 10:00 a.m. gen-
eral assembly will be Ray E. Ke-
hoe, assistant director of the bu-
reau.
SGC President Joe Collins, '58.
and Ron Shorr,'58.administrative
vice president, will speak at the
conference luncheons on the
theme of the day, "Student Lead-
ership and Citizenship."
Conference activities will begin
at 9:30 a.m. and will be inter-
rupted at 11:45 a.m. for lunch
which is scheduled for both the
League and Union. The confer-
ence will adjourn at 3:00 p.m.
Plans for the day include an
opening session address by Kehoe
on "New Ideas for Citizenship
