ANNUAL -REPORT OF THE DEAN OF THE FACULTY To the Chancellor, Deputy-Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor and Members of the Council of the University of Melbourne; Gentlemen, The report which I have much pleasure in submitting shows healthy and continuous development. within the Music School in this important year in its history, when we are. putting into practice for the first time the new academic regulations governing" the music course. Enrolmentś A small increase in enrolments this year is gratifying. In spite of the inevitable increases in fees during recent years, the full courses for the degree and diplòma contique to attract students of a uniformly good type, but present-day conditions tend to divert some students to part-time study or to "single studies". Comparative figures for the last three years are: . 1953 ' 1954 ' 1955 ' Full Course ...... . .. 164 166 153 Single Studies ...... 296 249 270

460 415 423 Entrance Exhibitionaand Scholarships Again there was a high standard of work presented by a large number of candidates., Besides. the .usual valuable . awards,. including; the Australian Music Examinations. Board Entrance Exhibitions, the Ormond Exhibitions and the other funded scholarships, I was able to announce the renewal of Mrs. Lilian Richardson's generous award of £100 and of the Austral Salon Scholarship and the Alberto Zelman Memorial Scholarship. The encouragement given by the interest of the donors means much to our students. . Teaching Staf The following new appointments have been made: Miss Nancy Weir and Mr. Ronald Farren Price (Chief Study Pianoforte), Miss Hermia Barton and Mr. John Glickman (Chief Study Violin) and Mr. Jiri Tancibudek (Chief Study Oboe). It is with deepest regret that I record the deaths during the year of three of our most valued members of the staff—Miss Clarice Malyon, Mr. Lindsay Biggins and Mr. Hugo Stockigt. They devoted their lives unselfishly to the finest ideals of teaching and cultivating in the community á love and appreciation of music.: .,: Řevision of Curriculum . The new curriculum, introduced this year, brought in some important develop- ments, with an emphasis on the specialized training of executants and prospective teachers. The importance of practical music—of 'flaking music—is insisted upon just as strongly as hitherto, but the new scheme will better meet the needs of different types of students. On the, academic side the three principal changes in the course are directed towards a more effective knowledge and a higher standard of musicianship. In accord with contemporary opinion abroad, harmony and counterpoint are combined as two aspects of the same material, namely creative writing. The study of the finest periods of contrapuntal writing is now done towards the end of the course, when the students are able and ready for specialization of this kind. The course in sight reading has been reorganized to train students to hear mentally what they read. Insistence on solfege and sight singing is introduced to strengthen the rhythmic and sight reading capacity of the student. The introduction of Music Literature and Materials is designed to give the student a working knowledge of the literature of his instrument, which the detailed teaching of his chief study cannot provide. Melba Hall The reconstruction of Melba Hall has been completed, and the University now has a hall in which concerts, particularly, may be presented artistically and with comfort to performers and audience alike. Already its acoustic Perfection has attracted the attention of outside organizers, and I am hoping that the virtually new hall will be a means of encouraging a closer contact between the University and the public. I hope, too, that the practice so frequently met with overseas of presenting concerts and recitals within the universities may become a permanent feature of our own university life. 8 I am glad to have been able to place the building at the disposal of the Univer- sity Centenary Appeal organizers for the purpose of two major functions, and the facilities of the Music School have been freely and regularly used by the University Choral Society, the Musica Viva Society and the Victorian Chamber Players. Cońservatorium Orchestra Orchestral work continues from year to year with the generous support of The Lady Northcote Permanent Orchestra Trust Fund and under the direction of Mr. Henri Touzeau. The public had a splendid opportunity to hear the orchestra in the Melbourne Town Hall on the occasion of the launching of the University Centenary Appeal, when the quality of the work, which I was proud to conduct, must have been a source of pride to all who have the University's interests at heart. A number of students appeared with the orchestra at the Annual Midwinter Concert, and a third concert will be given at the close of the year. Annual Concerto Festival The taking over of the Annual Concerto Festival by the Australian Broad- casting Commission has not diminished the close association between the Conserva- torium and the Commission in this important event. This year the state finalists were almost entirely Conservatorium students, and among them our own John Mallinson (Organ) was successful. In the Commonwealth final contest Barbara load (Clarinet), who left the Conservatorium to accept a professional orchestral appointment in Queensland, was the winner. Co-operation with the University Union As in previous years, a series of lunch-time chamber music concerts has been given in the Union Theatre, with the enthusiastic support of the Warden of the Union, and to consistently large audiences. The programmes have been drawn from the regular weekly work of the Instrumental Ensemble classes, and have become established as a feature of the corporate life of our University. Programmes have also been provided for the "Union Nights". Secretary's Leave of Absence Mr. Fiddian returned in May, after nine months' leave of absence. His report on his activities abroad and the tireless energy he displayed in his desire to use conscientiously the opportunities provided for him by the University leave no doubt that his experiences and his contact with a number of university music departments and music schools in the United Kingdom and on the Continent will be of lasting benefit to musical education. His talks with the executive officers of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music and with the Ministry of Education have prepared the way, respectively, for further negotiations as to the joint conduct (with the Australian Music Examination Board) of diploma examinations, and as to the recognition by the Ministry of the diplomas awarded by the Australian Music Examinations Board. . Library A new library is our most pressing need. The growth of the Conservatorium in recent years has resulted in the valuable collection of orchestral scores and parts, of chamber music and general musical literature, besides a fine collection of books, being necessarily housed in a war-time air-raid shelter. When it is realised that students' borrowings from the departmental library are particularly high, compared with students' borrowings in other departments, the urgency of finding new library accommodation will be appreciated. The department is developing yearly, and calls upon the time and energy of the members of the staff have increased enormously. I wish to record my warm thanks. for their loyal co-operation and service, and particularly to say how deeply I appreciate the invaluable and unselfish support given me by the Vice-Director, Dr. Percy Jones, and the Secretary, Mr. Paull Fiddian. I am, Your obedient servant, BERNARD HEINZE, (Ormond Professor) Dean of the Faculty of Music. 9 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 Нагтопy. (d) Concert Practice. In this School all Second Study work of the Degree and Diploma Courses will be taught, subject to the payment of additional fees. 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 Study.—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) Нarrпony 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 pages 24 to 35 and for Details of Subjects see pages 36 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 24-35) 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 10 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 ' 10

Conservatorium activities such as vocal and instrumental ensemble classes as 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 Ensemble 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) .

They will not be required to pay the Annual Registration fee or the Union Entrance fee and the Annual Union fee will be reduced for them to fl/il!- and the S.R.C. fee to 6/-.

Payment of Fees and Entry 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. 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 of entry 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 fůll 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 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. 3. Students may enter the Conservatorium at the beginning of any term. 12 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 matriculaton in 1956 are 12th and 17th April. Unless this is done no subjects passed can 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, Social 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 any) 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. Ex-service candidates (i.e., those who have given not less than twelve months' service in the armed forces of the United Nations in Korea), and in special cases other candi- dates, 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 : ( а) Persons who in their first University year become 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. (b) Adult matriculants (i.e., persons who arę 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. (c) Special cases (i.e., persons whose studies have been hampered by illness or by changes in requirements, or whose qualifications are deficient only in a very minor respect). Individual determinations are made in these cases. (d) Persons in employment. Candidates who are in full-time employment and have passed the necessary School Leaving subjects may qualify to matriculate by passing, while in full-time employment, in four Matricula- tion subjects including English Expression at any three sittings. (e) Technical college students. Candidates with approved technical college qualifications are qualified to matriculate if they have passed at the Matriculation Examination in English Expression. (f) Ad eundein statunг applicants. Candidates who have qualified to matricu- late in another recognized University may be admitted to matriculation. 13 All candidates for special forms of matriculation should consult the Matricula- tion Officer in the Registrar's Office, who will advise them as to the form of application required. Graduation The dates for conferring Degrees in 1956 are as follows : Saturday, 24th March (Annual Commencement). Wednesday, 11th April. Monday, 6th August. Tuesday, 18th December. Candidates for Degrees and Diplomas must lodge an application on the pre- scribed form, obtainable at the Registrar's Office, by the date set down in the list of Principal Dates. This application must be accompanied by a bank-slip for the Degree or Diploma fee. The fees are as follows: For the Degree of Bachelor of Music ...... :й010 0 For the Degree of Doctor of Music ...... • 26 5 0* For the Diploma in Music ...... • 3 3 0 Library Students have access to a library of works of reference in addition to orchestral, vocal, operatic and chamber music scores. Orchestral works are also available for approved borrowers on payment of a small fee.

Approved Courses Commonwealth Scholarships are available in all first degree courses and certain combined courses and undergraduate diploma courses at universities and institutions of university status, in Technical College and School of Mines diploma courses at prescribed standards, 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 permitted to take a full-time course on a part-time basis. In general, selected students will be free to apply their scholarships ta any of the approved courses. Eligibility Commonwealth Scholarships are in general intended to enable boys and girls who have successfully completed their secondary education to proceed to a university or similar institution. 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 course. Special conditions apply to applicants 20 for scholarships to do full-time Technical College diploma courses. The applicant and his parents will, in general, be required to be domiciled in Australia or to be permanently resident in Australia. Special provision is made, however, for a limited number of scholarships to be made available 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 qualifying for matriculation in the university in the state con- cerned, 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 awarded later years and mature age scholarships. Combined Courses In certain circumstances scholarships may be extended to cover more than one course. The following combined courses have been approved subject in most cases to the imposition of an annual quota : Diploma Agricultural Science (Dookie or Longerenong) plus Bachelor of Agric. Science. . Arts/Law. Arts/Oriental Languages. Arts/Technical degree course, e.g. Science, Dentistry, Engineering, etc. Arts or Science plus Librarianship.

Technical school diploma plus appropriate University degree course. Further information regarding the above courses or other combinations which may be approved from time to time may be obtained from the Commonwealth Scholar- ships Branch. Benefits Selection for scholarships will be made entirely on merit, and all students awarded scholarships will be entitled to tuition fees and certain other compulsory expenses, irrespective of the means of their 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. The maximum living allowance is 1169 per annum for a student living with his parents and 1240/10/- per annum for a student compelled to live away from home. Special provision is made concerning benefits payable to mature age students. Winners of scholarships will be entitled to benefits for the duration of their courses, subject to satisfactory progress. . Living Allowances Students undertaking approved full-time courses will be entitled to apply for a living allowance, subject to a means test. This will be based on the income of the applicant and his parents for the financial year preceding that in which he desires assistance. Maximum living allowance will be paid when the adjusted family income does not exceed 1600 per annum, and will be abated at the rate of 13 for every 110 by which the family income exceeds 1600 per annum. The adjusted family income is the total of the incomes of the parents for the pre- ceding financial year less 1100 for the first dependent child under sixteen years of age (other than the applicant) and 150 for each other such dependent child. Deferment A student awarded a Commonwealth Scholarship will be permitted in certain circumstances to defer his scholarship for a maximum period of twelve months. Deferment will be permitted where- 21 (a) the applicant has not reached the age required by the Institution to qualify him for entrance upon the course of training which he desires to take, or is excluded temporarily under a quota system ; (b) the student, although nominally qualified in regard to age to undertake a course, desires to defer his course for a year in order that he may be more mature when he undertakes higher study; (c) the student is unable to undertake his course immediately because of ill- health ; (d) the student desires to return to a secondary school for further study; (e) the student desires to undertake a year's employment related to his course of study and/or his future career; (f) the student desires to travel overseas for educational or cultural experience or to take part in sporting activities; (g) there are special circumstances which justify deferment being granted. Employment Commonwealth scholars not in receipt of living allowance may undertake employment during term. 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. A student receiving a living allowance under the scheme may have an income from all sources of up to fl/10/- per week without deduction from his living allow- ance, and during long vacations he may in addition earn up to f3 per week from employment. This means that during the long vacation a scholar may receive up to f4/10/- per week without deduction from the living allowance he would otherwise receive.
