Centuries before this chronicle commences, Indians of the region considered music an inte­ gral part of their ceremonial observances. With the advent of the mission system, Indians were introduced to the music of the Catholic church, and the missions established by Father Kino maintained well-trained native choirs. The land area that is now Southern Arizona was originally a part of Mexioo, and the majority of the music heard a century ago in Tucson was provided by people of Mexican ancestry. As railroads were built in the southern portion of the Arizona Territory, it became easier and safer for new settlers to reach Tucson. They brought their own songs and other music with them. Some of these new citizens had acquired musical training in the eastern part of the United States or in European countries, and the music they knew and performed was different from that of Tucson's Spanish and Mexican heritage. ix X Even in Territorial days, there were Tucsonlans sufficiently interested in music to found the city's first bands, orchestras, church choirs, and musical clubs. Al­ though few of these first endeavors survived the test of time, they did provide commendable contacts with music for Tucsonlans as well as stimulated the development of other musical organizations. As the new State of Arizona and the City of Tucson expanded, so did local musical activities and facilities for musical events; within the past half- century, residents of Tucson have been offered an increasing number and variety of musical events - many of them undoubt­ edly beyond the expectations of even the most far-sighted musical pioneers. It is interesting to note that, in spite of the many problems confronting Tucsonlans in Territorial and early Statehood days, they were always deeply concerned with the establishment of a lasting musical education for their children. Tucson"s public school system, which was started in I867 with a one-room, one-teacher school for a few boys, now includes four major school districts, all of which currently offer varied and excellent music study opportunities. These four districts now have a total of 84 teaching specialists in music alone, and approximately 20,000 students annually participate in school-sponsored musical activities. Tucson's parochial school system, first established in 1870 when the Sisters of St. Joseph opened a Female Academy, initially included music as a part of the curriculum as it continues to do in all three of its high schools at the present time. Instruction in music at The University of Arizona progressed from a very small and hesitant beginning in 1892 to a fully accredited and nation­ ally recognized School of Music. During this period of seventy-five years from I892 to 1967, the University has awarded 365 Bachelor's, 202 Master's, and 6 Doctor's degrees in music. Throughout this document, emphasis has been placed on establishing an historical frame-work in which to relate the musical events which occurred during the past one hun­ dred years. References are made to the many ways in which music was used in dally living in a frontier environment, in Territorial and early Statehood days, and finally as an integral part of Tucson's cultural expansion of recent years. Although the cultural growth of other parts of the State of Arizona has been equally impressive, this study deals only with persons and events related to Tucson itself. Finally, it is hoped that the information presented in this dissertation may become a permanent record of the unique and interesting musical growth and development in The Old Pueblo from 1867 to 1967. CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Music has always played a major role in the com­ munity life of Tucson. Long before Tucson was settled by the Spaniards, Indians of the region considered music an integral part of their ceremonial rites. In addition to the poetic chanting which constituted a large portion of their musical activities, they constructed musical instru­ ments from available materials and learned to play them.

Special Thanks to the There were many speculations during Elgar's life about Sponsors what that "enigma" might be, but he denied all the claims and took the secret to his grave. What we know is that the composition starts with a beautiful original theme followed by fourteen variations - each one dedicated to a best friend, one to his wife, and the last one to himself. The well-known "Nimrod"" variation became one of Elgar's most famous tunes used in many movies and also in the closing ceremony of the 2012 Olympics.
