ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DEAN IF -THE FACULTY OF MUSIC 1. Enrolments There has been a considerable rise in the number of students enrolled for the full course this year. Increased interest on the parhof the Education Department in encouraging prospective teachers to study music with the view to becoming school music teachers has undoubtedly contributed to this rise in numbers. Comparative figures for the last three years are : 1955 1956 1957 Full course ...... 153 153 174 Single studies .. .. . .. 270 256 287 423 409 461 While there has been some increase over recent years in instrumental students other than pianoforte, special attention to the developing of string playing in the schools is most necessary if the Conservatorium is to maintain an adequate supply of, and a high standard of performance for professional orchestral players. 2. Stag Dr. George Frederick Loughlin, of the Glasgow University, has been appointed to the Ormond Chair of Music. He is expected to take up this appoint- ment at the beginning of the 1958 academic year. Dr. Loughlin has had consider- able experience in University teaching as well as in the field of school music in both Great Britain and Canada. Since the resignation of Sir Bernard Heinze, Dr. Percy Jones has carried out the duties of Acting Director of the Conservatorium. It is with deep regret that the death of Dr. J. C. Bower, who for some years undertook the teaching of Acoustics in the Conservatorium, is recorded. The Con- servatorium is also the poorer for the resignation of Dr. T. H. Coates, who for many years gave valuable service as lecturer in Methods of Teaching. Leave of absence was granted to Mr. Keith Humble to enable him to accept an invitation from M. Rene Liebowitz to work with him in the production of a number of chamber operas in Europe during 1957. The experience gained from this work should prove most valuable to the Conservatorium on his return. Leave of absence was also granted to Miss Marianne Maxwell, Miss Tamara Coates and Mr. Gordon Miller to go abroad. .. During the year Mr. Allan Fraser was appointed a chief study teacher of Pianoforte, Mr. Standish Roberts a chief study teacher of Trumpet and Mr. John Mowsen a chief study teacher of the Double Bass. Miss Judith Easton (Oboe) and Mr. Alec Grieve (French Horn) were engaged temporarily in the absence of Miss Tamara Coates and Mr. Gordon Miller. 3. Entrance Exlubitions With the opportunities afforded by Commonwealth Scholarships and Education Department Secondary Studentships, the University Entrance Exhibitions and Scholarships do not attract the number of candidates of former years. The scheme of awarding Entrance Exhibitions and Scholarships is at present under review, but a final decision will not be made before the arrival of the incoming Ormond Professor. Sincere thanks must however be expressed to the President and members of the Austral Salon, Mrs. Lilian Richardson, Mrs: Alberto Zelman, Mr. Harold Newey and the President and members of the Music Lovers' Society for the sub- stantial gifts they have made towards the Entrance Exhibitions and Scholarships. 4. Concerto Festival A number of the students of the Conservatorium availed themselves of the opportunity to enter for the Annual Concerto Festival conducted by the Australian Broadcasting Commission. Seven of the eight finalists were students of the Con- servatorium, namely : Rosemary Hole, John Lavender, Valerie Mackenzie, John Mallinson, Wendy Pomroy, Angela Stott, Loris Synan.

5. Conservatorium Orchestra This year the students themselves were able to provide a full complement of instruments, including, for the first time, the harp. Mr. Henri Touzeau, who 1(1 returned early in the year from leave overseas, again directed the orchestra, and the performances reached à high standard of playing. In particular mention should be made of the Midwinter Concerto Concert which was held in Wilson Hall. Two of the more significant works on that occasion were the Concerto for Flute, Clarinet and Strings by Bloch and the Organ Concerto by Bossi. The perform- ance of this last work by Mr. John Mallinson provided the first opportunity of hearing the new Wilson Hall organ in conjunction with the Symphony Orchestra. The whole evening proved an outstanding musical success. The students' orchestra provided the music for the opening of the Arts Festival during the Olympic Games at the National Gallery, contributing in no small manner to the artistic success of the evening. 6. Lunch-time Concerts With the completion of Wilson Hall, the opportunity was taken to begin a series of weekly lunch-time concerts during the three terms. The bulk of the performances has been given by teachers on the staff of the Conservatorium, and they have concentrated more particularly in covering the lesser performed Beet- hoven Sonatas. Several organ recitals have also been given as part of this series. One particular recital might be singled out for special mention. This is the Harpsichord recital given by Miss lancei Kirby to commemorate the bi- centenary of the death of Domenico Scarlatti. This recital raised considerable interest amongst the students, not only in the music but also in the mechanics of the instrument. These lunch-time concerts have proved a great success, some of them attract- ing an audience of over 900. The Wilson Hall has proved an ideal venue for such recital work, the organ recitals being especially popular. 7. Visit of ir. Rafael de Silva Special mention must be made of the visit of Mr. Rafael de Silva, noted pianoforte teacher from New York. It is some . years since the Conservatorium invited Madame Bascourret de Gueraldi, of Paris, to undertake a series of public demonstration lectures here. Mr. de Silva's, visit took the form not only of public lectures, but also of intensive courses of group tuition to a number of our teachers and to some of our most promising students. Mr. de Silva proved himself a magnificent teacher, and during his two months' stay at the Conservatorium, gave a great fillip to interest in the problems of technique and interpretation of pianoforte playing. 8. Library Considerable additions to the Library have been necessitated by the demands of students from the Faculties of Arts and Music who attend lectures in musical history. These additions included both books and recordings, the latter being more particularly of music belonging to the early period of history and of contemporary composers. With these increases, the demand for adequate library accommodation becomes still more acute and urgent. Many of these purchases, along with the purchase of chamber music and orchestral instruments, were made possible through the generosity of the Lady Northcote Fund. 9. Australian Music Examinations Board The fact that there is an increase of over 500 entries for the September. examinations of the A.M.E.B. is some indication of the efficiency with which the Board carries out its duty to the music teaching profession in conducting examinations which have proved most profitable to teachers and students alike. Through the Board's graded examinations, teachers throughout the State, who might otherwise have little or no opportunity of professional help in main- taining standards, derive immense benefit from the reports and the friendly words of advice they receive from the examiners. 10. Acknowledgements The Acting Dean would like to express his sincere thanks to all members of the Faculity of Music for their support during the year. In this regard Dr. P. Jones and Mr. I. P. Fiddian have been particularly helpful and co-operative. D. COCHRANE, Acting Dean of the Faculty of Music. 11. COURSES OF STUDY The work of the Conservatorium is divided into three schools 1. Introductory School. 2. Degree and Diploma School. 3. Master School. Introductory School This School is designed to meet the requirements of students in need of further study before entering upon the full course for the Degree or Diploma in Music. The course for this School includes: (a) Practical Study.—The Student must select a Chief Study, that is to say, a practical study to which he intends to devote his chief attention. (b) Ear Training and Sight Reading. (c) Theory and Elementary Harmony. (d) Concert Practice.

Degree and Diploma School This School is designed with a view to the requirements of Candidates for the Degree of Mus. Bac. or for the Diploma in Music, and provides a compre- hensive course of study termed the Full Course. Other students, however, are admitted to the Course, or may, with the permission of the Director, take portions only of the curriculum. The Full Course includes : (a) Chief Stildy.—Each student must select a Chief Study, that is to say, a practical study to which he intends to devote his chief attention. Candi- dates for the Third Year Diploma in Schools A (a) and B (a), however, will receive fifty minutes' personal attention in place of a Second Study. (b) Second Study.—The student, in addition, receives instruction in a second practical study in the choice of which he should consult the Director. (c) Harmony and Counterpoint. (d) Music A, B and C (Musical History). (e) Orchestration., (f) Sight Reading and Ear Training. . (g) Modern Languages.—(English Diction, Italian, and French or German) in place of Counterpoint for students taking Singing as chief study. (h) When prescribed.—Elementary Acoustics, Vocal and Instrumental Ensemble, Accompanying, Methods of Teaching, Music Literature and Materials. For Regulations see page 27 to 38 and for Details of Subjects see page 39 et seq. Degree in School Music This new school is designed with a view to the requirements of candidates for the Degree of Mus. Bac, and provides a comprehensive course of study for those desirous of teaching the subject in schools. Master School . This School is open to those who have obtained the Degree or the Diploma in Music in School A. (a) or B (a) and (b) (see pages 27-38) or to those who may give other evidence of fitness satisfactory to the Director. It is intended for students showing an undoubted ability as solo performers. Single Studies With the approval of the Director, students who are not candidates for the Degree or the Diploma may enter for Study in Pianoforte, Violin, Singing and Composition, at a fee of 5 to 16 guineas per term (according to teacher selected and duration of the weekly lesson). Single Study students will be entitled to attend the weekly Concert Practice, and will be required to take part in Conservatorium activities such as vocal and instrumental ensemble classes as 12

prescribed by the Faculty of Music, provided that in special cases of hardship exemption may be granted. Special Classes for students of Wind Instruments and for Ensemble Playing, Music for Two Pianofortes, French, German, Italian, Diction, or any other subject approved by the Director, may be arranged at any time, and are not confined to students of the Conservatorium. Opera School The Opera School provides for the study of Grand Opera. University Conservatorium Symphony Orchestras Rehearsals of the University Conservatorium Orchestras (senior and junior) are held weekly. Students who have attained a sufficient degree of proficiency on an orchestral instrument must attend these rehearsals, at which Symphonies, Overtures, Concertos, etc., will be studied. Membership is open to outside players without payment of fee. Extra Classes Students are expected to attend certain general classes. 1. Instrumental and Vocal Ensemble Students of the Conservatorium are expected to gain experience in Ensenible work when, in the opinion of the Director, they have attained a sufficient degree of proficiency, for which purpose they will attend such classes as may be arranged by the Director. 2. Orchestral Class For instruction in the rudiments of orchestral playing preparatory to the University Conservatorium Orchestra. One hour weekly. 3. Concert Practice A short weekly concert, at which students will have an opportunity of gaining experience in public performance, will be held. All students of the Conservatorium should attend this class. All classes are open to the public on payment of the prescribed fee (see below) .

' . . Union Entrance Fee• .. f4 4 0 This fee is paid by every student on first enrolment. Applications for exemption from payment of Sports and Union fees must_ be made by 30th June. A concession is made to students enrolled for the Introductory School, or for single studies not taken as part of a Degree or Diploma course. They will not be required to pay the Annual Registration fee or the Union Entrance fee and the Annuli Union fee will be reduced for them to fl/l0/- and the S.R.C. fee to 6/-. Entry and Payment of Fees 1. Fees may be paid annually or in terminal instalments. 2. All fees must be paid to the credit of the University Account at the National Bank, Collins Street, or at one of its branches, at least a fortnight before the beginning of each term. This rule applies to both "Full Course" and "Single Study" students. For "Single Study" students there are four terms in the year, as for "Full Course" students, but because the "Full Course" terms vary in length and the "Single Study" fee is for nine lessons, "Single Study" students are required to pay fees whenever nine lessons have been completed, or a fortnight before the beginning of the following "Full Course" term, whichever is the earlier. "Single Study" students are required to pay fees for a term and a half in respect of the first term and, if enrolled in the first term, for half a term in respect of the third term. 3. An enrolment card, duly filled in and accompanied by the duplicate bank pay-in slip, must be furnished when the entry is first made for any particular year. For the following terms the duplicate pay-in slip must be sent to the office. 4. Failure to pay the fee, to forward the pay-in slip, or to send the filled-in entry form (when the latter is required) before the last day for payment of fees for each term renders a student liable to a late fee of ten shillings. 5. No student shall be admitted to the Examinations unless the full fee for the year has been paid. Admission 1. Before entering the Conservatorium, intending students must satisfy the Ormond Professor of their proficiency. The Australian Music Examination Board's Certificate of having passed in Fifth Grade Practice will be accepted as 14 evidence of such proficiency. The Secretary will be in attendance to interview all new students from 31st January. Appointments to see the Director should be made through the Secretary, 2. It is not necessary to matriculate or to pass the qualifying examinations as set out in Regulations LII and LIV unless the student intends to enter on the course for Degree or Diploma. Matriculation is required only for the Degree course. 3. Students may enter the Conservatorium at the beginning of any term. Matriculation and Faculty Pre-requisites All first year students in the Degree Course must matriculate—i.e., make the prescribed declaration and sign the matriculation roll—at the Registrar's Office during the first term. The dates fixed for matriculation in 1958 are 2nd and 10th April. Unless this is done no subjects passed cats count towards the degree. Students should satisfy themselves that they are qualified to matriculate before enrolling. Attention is drawn to the following points relevant to the obtaining of the matriculation qualification: In order to become qualified to matriculate, candidates must— (a) obtain the School Leaving Certificate and be credited therein with five subjects including (i) English, - (ii) a branch of Mathematics or of Science, (iii) one other subject chosen from the languages other than English, Greek and Roman History, Modern History, British History, Economics, Soćial Studies; (b) pass the Matriculation Examination by obtaining credit for four subjects including English Expression; (c) attain the age of seventeen years by March 31st in the year concerned. In addition to matriculating, candidates must also have passed the pre- requisite subjects (if anv) prescribed for their course. For the course for the Degree of Bachelor of Music, the pre-requisites comprise passes at the Matricula- tion Examination in Music (Practical) and Music (Theoretical) ; provided that in lieu of Music (Practical) and Music (Theoretical) a candidate may pass the examination of the first year of the course for the Diploma in Music. In special cases candidates may be given special treatment as regards pre-requisites. Enquiries in such cases should be made of the Registrar. The Professorial Board has discretionary powers concerning matricula- tion, and certain matriculation concessions may be made to candidates in the following categories: (a) Persons who in their first University year turn 17 years of age after 31st March but before the start of the Annual Examinations may be admitted to matriculation if they have fulfilled one of the following conditions (a) passed the Matriculation Examination twice, (b) passed the Matriculation Examination with a minimum of three honours, (c) passed the Matriculation Examination with particular distinction but with less than three honours. In each case the Professorial Board will satisfy itself about the maturity. of the candidate. (Ъ) Adult matriculants (i.e., persons who are at least twenty years of age and also have left school four full years on 31st March). Such candidates are normally required to satisfy certain special tests, and pass a reduced number of subjects at the Matriculation Examination.

The Commonwealth Scholarship Scheme The Commonwealth Government provides 3,000 scholarships each year for open competition among students who wish to undertake tertiary courses at universities and other approved institutions. Approved Courses Commonwealth Scholarships are available in all first degree courses and in some undergraduate diploma courses at universities and institutions of university status, in Technical College Diploma courses at prescribed standard, and in other approved professional courses. The courses approved include part-time as well as full-time courses, and in approved circumstances a student may be per- mitted to take a full-time course on a part-time basis. In general, selected students will be free to apply their scholarships to any single approved course. Students interested in combined courses ,ni'st seek advice from the Commonwealth Scholarships Ofiłce. 22 Eligibility Commonwealth Scholarships are intended to enable boys and girls who have successfully completed their secondary education to proceed to a university or similar institution or to continue a tertiary course already commenced. For this reason an applicant will be normally required to have matriculated and to be under twenty-five years of age on 1st January in the year in which he desires to commence his scholarship. Special conditions apply to applicants for scholar- ships to do full-time Technical College diploma courses. The applicant and his parents will, in general, be required to be permanently resident in Australia. Special provision is made for a limited number of scholarships to be made avail- able to mature age students aged not less than twenty-five years on 1st January in the year in which the scholarship is desired and not more than thirty years on 1st January in the year of commencement of the course. Selection Commonwealth Scholarships will be awarded on the results of applicants at the examination for matriculation in the university in the state concerned, even though matriculation is not required for the course they desire to study. Special provision is made, however, for selection of students who wish to take diploma courses in Technical Colleges and for students already engaged upon tertiary courses Combined Courses ln certain circumstances scholarships may be extended to cover more than one course. For most of the following combined courses only a limited quota of places is available and candidates desiring to do a combined course must make further enquiries at the Commonwealth Scholarships Branch.

Benefits All compulsory Fees will be paid, irrespective of the means of the scholar's parents. In addition, selected students who are undertaking full-time courses may apply for a living allowance, which will be payable subject to a means test. 23 The maximum living allowance at present is 1195 per annum for a student living with his parents and L299 per annum for a student not living with his parents. Special provision is made for mature age students. Winners of scholarships will be entitled to benefits for the duration of their courses, subject to satisfactory progress. Living Allowances The rules regarding living allowances have been revised and the new con- ditions will apply as from 1st January, 1958. (1) The holder of a Commonwealth Scholarship taking a full-time course may be eligible for a living allowance—subject to a means test. (2) The living allowance is assessed according to the combined gross income of the scholar's parents for the previous financial year, but this income is decreased by allowances made for dependants, other than the applicant, under 16 years at the close of that financial year. (£100 is deducted for the first dependant and f50 for each other dependant.) The income arrived at in this way is called the "adjusted income". The income of a step-father or step-mother should not be stated unless the scholar has been legally adopted. (3) (a) For students required to live away from home a living allowance on a graduated scale is payable on adjusted incomes up to (1,633 per annum. For students living at home the adjusted income limit is 11,286 per annum. In both cases the income limits will be higher if there are other dependent children under 16 years of age. (b) If a scholarship holder has a brother or a sister doing a full-time course at an approved institution, a different method of assessment is used. As a con- sequence the income limits referred to are raised to £2,125 and £1,605 respectively. (4) On an adjusted income of £650 or less the maximum living allowance is payable. This is i299 per annum (£5/15/- per week) for those living away from home and 1195 per annum (13/15/- per week) for those living at home. The allowance is reduced by f3 for each il0 by which the adjusted income exceeds. £650. Here is a typical example for a family of two adults, two dependent children under 16, and the scholarship holder : Gross income of father ...... 11000 Gross income of mother .. .. ...... f 100 Total family income ...... £1100 Deduct 1100 for first dependent child under 16 £150 Deduct #50 for second dependent child under 16 j Adjusted income ...... £950 As the adjusted income of £950 exceeds 1650 by 1300 (or 30 times Ill), the maximum living allowance must be reduced by 30 times f3 - f90. Thus for a scholar living away from home, the living allowance would be 1299 less 190 = i209, or 1195 less £90 = 1105 for a scholar living at home. (5) Three important points should be noted: (a) The income of a scholar during the academic year may cause a reduction in the living allowance payable. A scholar may earn up to f2 a week without incurring any deduction but any amount earned over this figure is deducted from the allowance otherwise payable for the week concerned. Earnings during the long vacation are ignored and do not affect the allowance. (b) Although calculated on a weekly basis, a living allowance is not paid weekly, but in quarterly instalments. (c) Should there be any change of a permanent nature in family financial circumstances (e.g. death, retirement, etc.) during a year, a scholar may become eligible for an allowance, or for payment at a higher rate. Enquiries should be made at the Commonwealth Scholarships Office. (6) An application for a living allowance may be made on a form attached to the scholarship application form. If possible it should be lodged with the application before the 30th November. If the information required is not available at that time, the living allowance form should be detached and lodged at a later date, but NOT later than 31st March, 1958. Applications received after that date will be considered, but any allowance may be paid at a reduced rate. 24 Deferment A student awarded a Commonwealth Scholarship will be permitted in certain circumstances to defer his scholarship for a maximum period of twelve months. A written application for deferment setting out the reasons should be made immediately an award is notified. Employment Commonwealth scholars not in receipt of living allowance may undertake employment. Mature age scholars and scholars in receipt of living allowance may undertake employment during term only with the permission of the Education Department. No restriction is placed on the amount of employment any scholar undertakes during the long vacation. Closing Dates The closing date for applications for Scholarships is 30th November. Application forms and any further information may be obtained from— The Officer-in-Charge, . Commonwealth Scholarships Branch, University Grounds, CARLTON, N.3, . VICTORIA. Education Department Studentships The Education Department provides a number of Studentships each year to enable qualified students to proceed to, or complete, certain University courses, provided that they undertake to serve the Department as teachers for the three years next after the termination of their studentships, although this period may be reduced to one year in the case of women who marry. Applicants must be prepared to study approved subjects in one of the following courses—Arts, Scienće, Commerce, Music, Agricultural Science and Physical Education. On the completion of degree courses students will take the first year of the course for the degree of Bachelor of Education. Physical Education students will be required, at the end of their diploma courses, to undertake the one-year course for the Trained Primary Teacher's Certificate at a Teachers' College. Studentships are tenable only at the Secondary Teacher's College, University of Melbourne. Allowances, of at least f7 a week, are intended to cover cost of books, travelling and personal expenses for the duration of the course, plus a living allowance for students living away from home. A limited amount of hostel accommodation is available for both men and women. Applications should be made on the prescribed form and should be forwarded to the Secretary, Education Department, Melbourne, in time to be received at the Department, not later than the 30th November. Students at school and student teachers should forward applications through their head-teacher or head-master. Graduates and undergraduates should forward their applications direct. Each applicant will be interviewed before an award is made. Gowrie Scholarship Trust Fund In addition to post-graduate research travelling scholarships and secondary school scholarships, four or five University entrance scholarships, of the value f75 p.a. and tenable for the normal period of a University course, are awarded by the Trustees. Application for all Scholarships are due on 30th November each year. Further particulars may be obtained from the Secretary, The Gowrie Scholarship Trust Fund, G.P.O. Box 2069, Sydney, N.S.W. Students' Loan Fund A Students' Loan Fund has been founded in connection with the Conserva- torium, the nucleus being formed by a donation of f50 from the late Dame Nellie Melba, then Madame Melba. It is hoped that it will be gradually increased by similar subscriptions. The object of the Fund is to assist students who are taking the full course for a Diploma or Degree, and who are willing to give an under- 25 taking to repay the amount of the loan, with interest at a low rate, after the completion of their course. Students who wish to obtain a loan from the Fund should apply to the Registrar. Diary The Melbourne University Press publishes a pocket diary each year. In addition to general information about the University, the diary contains information about the dates of examinations and lecture terms, of application for scholarships and of sporting fixtures; it also contains an indexed map of the University. The diary is on sale at the University Book Room.
