The Application of Different Teaching Strategies Reflective of Individual THE APPLICATION OF DIFFERENT TEACHING STRATEGIES REFLECTIVE OF INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS’ LEARNING MODALITIES IN THE UNIVERSITY FLUTE STUDIO CLASS DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Nicole L. Molumby, M.Mus * * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Document Committee: Professor Katherine Borst Jones, Advisor Approved by Professor David Frego Professor Christopher Weait _____________________________ Advisor Professor Keith Warren School of Music ABSTRACT The purpose of this Doctor of Musical Arts document is to identify and explore different learning modality combinations expressed by university flute students in the studio class. In five lessons, this document investigated how activities based on the technical and musical aspects of selected standard flute repertoire could be used in the studio class with students expressing their personal learning modalities. In this qualitative study of metacognition, the students’ awareness of their learning modality was observed as they became more conscious of their own learning style. The goal of this document was to encourage university flute students to incorporate a personal understanding of their individual learning process within the flute studio class. The majority of literature on student learning styles focuses primarily on elementary-aged students. However, this study examined how teaching strategies can be applied to students on the university level with music as the academic subject. This research identified and used different teaching strategies that encouraged students to reach their potential of understanding of their learning modality within a group environment. ii The study participants ranged from freshman to senior level flute majors at The Ohio State University and included both performance and music education majors. Students took the VARK learning modality questionnaire, which determined if they were visual, aural, reading, or kinesthetic learners. A combination of classroom observations and questionnaire results produced student learning profiles for each of the seven participants. The student reflection responses from each of the five lessons, as well as the final exit questionnaire, revealed that students found the studio class environment and the teaching strategies effective in meeting their personal learning styles. This brief study produced positive responses from all of the participants, particularly regarding group instruction and the students’ self-awareness of their personal learning styles. iii DEDICATION To “Ann, Brad, Carrie, Daria, Elaine, Fiona, and Gail,” You are not alone. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank my advisor, Professor Katherine Borst Jones for her support during this project, allowing me to work with such talented flute majors and for observing and attending the lessons. I am grateful to Dr. Frego for helping me develop this document topic, his creative lesson ideas and most of all his expert assistance in editing the manuscript. I would also like to thank Professor Weait for his encouragement and enthusiasm for teaching. Finally, to the participants, “Ann, Brad, Carrie, Daria, Elaine, Fiona, and Gail,” words cannot express my gratitude for your patience, participation, creativity, support, and willingness to try new things. v VITA May 29, 1975 ………………………………………… Born -Cedar Rapids, Iowa 1997 …………………………………………………..

  • Stockhausen's Intuitive Music by Hugh Davies
    - 1 - Stockhausen's Intuitive Music by Hugh Davies First printed in Musics, April/May 1975, p.10-11. Many people who are enthusiastic about the music of Karlheinz Stockhausen tend to be unsure about his pieces from the set known as ”Aus den sieben Tagen” ( = From the seven days). This is a set of text- scores, short verbal instructions with no conventional musical notation, composed in May 1968. The usual reactions to these pieces, based more on what the scores consist of rather than on the music which is produced from them, is to talk about Stockhausen's recent musical interests and to dismiss the pieces as improvisations. I would like to start by saying something about my own experiences with improvisation and what Stockhausen calls (in such compositions) intuitive music. In the last few years I have played composed music as a member of Gentle Fire and have been a member of two other, now defunct, groups, Music Improvisation Company and Naked Software, both of which were purely concerned with improvisation – Naked Software with no predetermined stylistic limitations (each member had a very different musical background), Music Improvisation Company, by virtue of the common background of the majority of its members, a so-called free jazz group. In the latter the structural and musical material was more restricted, but at the same time the interactions between the musicians were tighter. In both groups you could play in the secure knowledge that one or more of the other players, almost always particular players that one was ”aiming at”, would react to you in a particular way, without necessarily playing the sort of thing that you might have expected them to play – in other words a security which enabled unrestricted exploration of the new musical possibilities to take place.

  • Music from FUR KOMMENDE ZEITEN by Karlheinz Stockhausen
    Comunicato stampa Giugno 2012 Intuitive Music Quartet Music from FUR KOMMENDE ZEITEN by Karlheinz Stockhausen SILTACLASSICS SC003 © 2012 Per Musica Intuitiva si intende una forma musicale di improvvisazione basata sulla creazione istantanea, con o senza regole o canovacci predefiniti. E' un tipo di processo musicale, dove al posto della tradizionale partitura, agli esecutori vengono date istruzioni ed idee in maniera verbale o con l'ausilio di elementi grafici o testi. Il concetto è stato introdotto nel 1968 dal compositore tedesco Karlheinz Stockhausen, con specifico riferimento alle serie di composizioni costituite da testi AUS DEN SIEBEN TAGEN (1968) e FÜR KOMMENDE ZEITEN (1968/71). Spesso considerati come degli esercizi di meditazione, questi testi in realtà descrivono con le parole degli eventi musicali specifici: “Non voglio delle sedute spiritiche, voglio musica! Non cerco qualcosa di mistico, ma piuttosto qualsiasi cosa che sia assolutamente diretto, dall'esperienza concreta” (traduzione non letterale da Wikipedia, l’enciclopedia libera). L'Intuitive Music Quartet (Quartetto di Musica Intuitiva) è nato con l'obiettivo concreto di suonare le composizioni del ciclo di testi FÜR KOMMENDE ZEITEN (For Times To Come), rispettando l'intenzione originale del compositore tedesco. Il quartetto sceglie di utilizzare sia strumenti acustici che live sound processing, integrandosi perfettamente nel concetto di Suono che queste composizioni richiedono, ed evita le negatività interpretative che lo stesso Stockhausen incontrò le prime volte che condusse queste esecuzioni. Stockhausen era determinato nell’eliminazione di qualsiasi traccia di egocentrismo dalle formazioni che si approcciavano a questo repertorio, avendo notato che alcuni esecutori non resistevano alla tentazione di seguire la loro personale ispirazione a discapito dell'insieme.

Karlheinz Stockhausen :: HYMNEN :: Regions I and II [ 57:52 ] :: Regions III and IV [ 56:07 ] Short-wave. The aural window on the world. Babble and squeak. " .... get across the ocean in a few seconds". Cut the ether with the tuning dial and hit the edge of a station somewhere far, far away. A single speaking voice emerges. Or maybe it's a large choir voicing a robust melody. Perhaps it's the insatiable bleeping of a Morse code transmission, the actual message submerged in secret rhythms. At the edge the sound fizzes and swirls, then fades and tumbles back. Turn the dial. Slowly, precisely, deliberately. Searching for the don't-know-what. Hiss and crackle rub against high pitched drones that recall the burnished shriek of a jet engine. A voice reads a string of numbers, slowly and deliberately. Keep turning. Suddenly drums and trumpets and unison voices sing heartily, passionately, joyously - an anthem, a national anthem. It shifts and twists and begins to throb like a distant pulsar. Keep turning. Stations run together transforming noise, via melody, into speech then headlong into electro-gabble before swirling back again into noise. This is the world of HYMNEN: short-wave scramble, voices, distant places and music. Recordings of familiar tunes, national anthems (in German: 'Hymnen'), are transformed as if filtered through a billion stars. Stockhausen writes, "Anthems, the national anthems, are the most popular music there is.

  • Preamble 3 Stockhausen: Signals
    Preamble 3 Stockhausen: Signals …as an electric system we’re always influenced by the waves that run through us. And the sound waves directly attack the whole skin, not only the eardrums. You can hear through the whole body. (Karlheinz Stockhausen, in Cott, Stockhausen: Conversations with the Composer)1 The 1960s and early 1970s form a threshold within Stockhausen’s oeuvre, bringing many of his earlier discoveries to temporary summation, while at the same time bringing new areas of sonic and aleatoric investigation into clearer focus. These works sit between the hyper-serialism of Stockhausen’s Darmstadt years and the later, grand musico-theatrical project of Licht (1977-2003) and the incomplete Klang (2004-2007),2 which would occupy him until the end of his life. It’s a period where Stockhausen explores, fairly systematically, various types of non-standard and hybrid notation, extending the scope of the graphics first utilised in scores such as 1954’s Elektronische Studie II and 1959’s Zyklus, and with an increasing use of colour and the visual arts in the creation of scores and supplementary materials also.3 The 1960s also see the creation of two sets of text scores (Stockhausen’s ‘intuitive’ music), the exploration of ritual performance and physical space, and further researches into electronics, vibrations, and radio; hence the title of this preamble—Signals. Signals as a means of communication, as musical messages, material, correspondences, codes, remnants of the living, broken fragments, crackle, static, audio hallucinations, voices of the lost, ghosts? Perhaps… Visual signals: For a composer so concerned with pictorial, graphic, colouristic, timbral, and imagistic approaches to composition, it seems appropriate to allow the discussion to circulate around Derrida’s essay +R (Into the Bargain) (1987),4 following a brush stroke to see where it might lead in terms of sound, vision, space and time.
