Perhaps you have shared this experience with me. I have been working at this discipline almost every day, often several hours a day. It is something that I often don't feel like starting, but once I've started I find the mental and physical challenges engrossing. I'm prepar­ ing for a performance that will be inspiring for me, a performance that is only possi­ ble by participating along with many others. Although the hours, weeks, and years of preparation have required stamina, mental toughness, and dedication, the actual "per­ formance" will be over in a matter of hours. Maybe you identify with some of these feelings in your own relationship with the viola, and the discipline of practice. It is now time to tell you that I am speaking of my training for the Chicago Marathon, at this writing a few weeks away. In these final weeks before the marathon, everything I do seems to be in some way related to the race. Please read on to under­ stand my fascination with the similarities between the Chicago Marathon and our fine American Viola Society. First, the Chicago Marathon is special because it is so large and diverse. I have run the Chicago twice and been inspired and fulfilled by the 30,000 participants in a way that Cleveland's fine race (with 5,000 starters) could not duplicate. Our vibrant, growing society (the largest national group in the world) allows frequent opportuni- Peter Slowik ties for challenge and support through Congresses, competitions, and its publication. Second, it is thrilling to be an amateur running IN THE SAME RACE as the world's greatest athletes! In 1999, as I was running to a personal record in the Chicago Marathon, Khalid Khannouchi broke the world's record for the marathon by finishing a scant 1 hr and 55 minutes in front of me! (The previous year I had finished about 2'/2 hours behind the finisher, so look out for me in the 2004 Olympics!!) In a similar vein, devoted amateurs can benefit from being in the same viola society as the world's most accomplished performers and teachers. Third, runners in the Chicago Marathon are inspired and urged on by the marvelous variety and energy of Chicago's ethnic neighborhoods. Similarly, the variety of events sponsored by our local chapters lend a different ftavor or focus to each. Together they create the rich fabric that is the American Viola Society. Fourth, each runner in the Chicago Marathon has an individual goal-whether it is a world record, breaking 4 hours, or just finishing! Likewise, our society has goals-to provide local mem­ bership opportunities for each member, 2000 total members, increased prize money in the Primrose competition, or a long dream list of publications. Many of the runners in the race will reach or exceed their goal, while some will suffer cramps or exhaustion and fall short. Ultimately, though, the triumph of the marathon is not the achievement of the goal, but setting the goal high and giving a total effort to reach it. So, I urge you to take your part in this effort to make the American Viola Society great. Whether you have the potential to be a record-breaker, a mid-pack runner, or one who barely makes it the whole way, the Society needs you and your individual talents to make it a great "hap­ pening." Some members of the society have been pace-setters and others of us have been couch potatoes. It's time for ALL of us to get in the race-recruiting new members, making connections with students and amateurs, making sure that professional colleagues know of the opportunities to enrich their field through participation in local and national events and publications. Each one of us is needed to make this effort successful, so let's get going! Meet you at the finish line (and don't forget to double-tie your shoe laces)! IS Happy trails, Y~_,S\-~~ Peter Slowik President 6 lticaao IUS I CAL (/C 0 L LEGE Richard Ferrin and Li-Kuo Chang, CMC Viola Faculty Li-Kuo Chang, appointed assistant principal viola of rhe Chicago Symphony Orchestra by Sir Georg Solti in 1988, held similar positions in China, Europe, and rhe Unired Srares, including assistant principal viola of rhe Denver Symphony Orchestra.

  • Critical Success Factors in Cello Training – a Comparative Study
    Critical success factors in cello training a comparative study by Anzél Gerber Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree PhD Music (Performance Practice) in the Department of Music Goldsmiths College, University of London Supervisor Professor Alexander Ivashkin 2008 (ii) DECLARATION I, Anzél Gerber, the undersigned, hereby declare that this dissertation, submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree PhD Music (Performance Practice), is my own original work. Signed: _______________________ Anzél Gerber (iii) ABSTRACT The research focused on the identification and ranking of critical success factors that contribute most significantly towards the training of a cello student. The empirical study was based on a sample of cello teachers in four countries selected for the study, namely Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. A literature study, identifying a broad category of factors that could contribute towards successful cello training, formed the basis of the questionnaire. These critical success factors included the quality of the teacher, acquired skills, the talent and giftedness of the student, support rendered to the student, and the curriculum. Each of these factors comprised five sub factors. The respondents were required to rank these factors in order of importance. In the final analysis, they were requested to rank the five main factors. A statistical process of ranking (forced ranking) and Kruskal-Wallis was applied to rank and analyse the responses of the cello teachers in the survey. The critical success factors that contribute the most significantly towards successful cello training were identified and compared. ________________________________ (iv) PREFACE This study is in partial fulfilment for the degree PhD Music Performance at Goldsmiths College, University of London.

This section represents LC/PCC practice. Before creating a bibliographic record, determine what is being cataloged. Answer these two questions: OBERLIN LCRI CUMULATED 1-2 rev. 12-10 1) What aspect of the bibliographic resource will the bibliographic record represent? a) A resource may not be part of a larger resource and so the bibliographic record can represent only that resource. b) A resource may be part of a larger resource (one part of a multipart item, one analytic of a monographic series, one of several separate resources on a Web site, etc.). The bibliographic record could represent the “smaller” or the “larger” resource. c) A resource may not be part of a larger resource but local cataloging policies may specify creating a bibliographic record for a made-up larger resource of materials that are not published, distributed, or produced together.1 2) What is the type of issuance of that aspect? a) See both the definitions from AACR2 appendix D and the diagram in “Type of Issuance” below.
