TI LN DAILY TUESDAY, OCTC 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.
