  • Teacher's Guide Hemke
    Teacher’s Guide by Dr Frederick Hemke Frederick Hemke is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin;the Eastman School of Music, where he was solo saxophonist with the Eastman Wind Ensemble; and the National Conservatory at Paris, where he was a student of the celebrated Marcel Mule, and the first A m e r ican ever to win a Fi rst Prize in saxophone. He has since become a major exponent of the French school of saxophone technique,giving concerts,clinics and lectures throughout the country. D r. H e m ke is Pro fessor of Music at N o rt h we s t e r n Unive rs i t y, and head of the wind and percussion department there. He has also taught at the Gunnison, Colorado, Music Camp and the National Music Camp at I n t e r l o ch e n , as well as the Bemidji State College Music Camp. Introduction It is unnecessary to lament the plight of the saxophone and its gross misuse. It is necessary to recognize that the instrument can be successfully taught with as high a degree of seriousness as any other concert instrument. Moreover, it can be taught in relation to itself; that is, it need not depend on any other instrument for pedagogical analogies. The saxophone is an instrument distinct in itself and must be taught as such. While in the United States uncertainty has hampered the teaching of the saxophone, Europeans have long since t u r ned to Fra n c e ’s established school of saxophone technique, sound, and pedagogy.

Umble, Committee Member Date ____________________________________________________________ Peter J. Kasvinsky, Dean of School of Graduate Studies Date Abstract From the time Adolphe Sax took out his first patent in 1846, the saxophone has found its way into nearly every style of music with one notable exception: the orchestra. Composers of serious orchestral music have not only disregarded the saxophone but have actually developed an aversion to the instrument, despite the fact that it was created at a time when the orchestra was expanding at its most rapid pace. This thesis is intended to identify historical reasons why the saxophone never became a permanent member of the orchestra or acquired a reputation as a serious classical instrument in the twentieth century. iii Dedicated to Isabella, Olivia & Sophia And to my father Michael C.

  • Fostering Artistry and Pedagogy: Conversations with Artist-Teachers Frederick Hemke, Eugene Rousseau, and Donald Sinta
    FOSTERING ARTISTRY AND PEDAGOGY: CONVERSATIONS WITH ARTIST-TEACHERS FREDERICK HEMKE, EUGENE ROUSSEAU, AND DONALD SINTA by Julia Nolan A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Curriculum Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2012 © Julia Nolan, 2012 ABSTRACT This research presents three case studies that explore university teachers in the private music studio and in the master class setting, framed by one central question: how do artist-teachers articulate, negotiate, and give shape to their pedagogical practices about artistry and interpretation within the context of private music education? The cases focus on saxophone artist-teachers Frederick Hemke at Northwestern University, Eugene Rousseau at the University of Minnesota, and Donald Sinta at the University of Michigan. I analyzed instrumental music performance teaching and learning from the perspective of the three artist-teachers. The data collected from interviews, observations, and my personal narratives provide a rich resource for the analysis of the professional lives of master musicians, their pedagogies, and their thoughts about artistry in music performance and instruction. Interviews with many of the artist-teachers’ students also informed my analysis. More important, this study connects present and future saxophonists by capturing the voices of recognized artist-teachers about artistry and pedagogy. Central to this thesis are the discovery of how little has changed in the concepts of artistry and pedagogy over time and across the evolution of musical styles, and recognition of the power of the strong bonds that connect generations of students with their teachers and their teachers’ teachers.
