A STUDY OF MOTIVATIONS FOR BAND PARTICIPATION AS PERCEIVED BY BAND SECTION LEADERS, BAND INSTRUCTORS, AND PRINCIPALS IN SELECTED NORTH CENTRAL ASSOCIATION HIGH SCHOOLS.
Abstract
In twentieth century education, the high school band has become an integral part of the music curriculum as well as the entire secondary schoo? curriculum. Mercer and Nye, among others, have determined that several million students were members of organized school bands during the mid-sixties and early seventies.The curriculum reform movement of the 1960's greatly affected the curriculum of music education. The music curriculum has expanded to include courses such as music theory, music appreciation, the humanities, and various music ensembles. Along with this expansion came a demand for accountability, as in other curricular areas, and a need for justification for those programs. It was during this era of curriculum reform that renewed efforts in justification, accountability, and objectivity were established for music education on a national level. The tenor for music education as well as further objectivity resulted from sources such as the Yale Seminar, the Tanglewood Symposium, the Contemporary Music Project, the "Goals and Objectives"
