Hendrik Drakl, Director PHILADELPHIA l MUSICAL ACADEMY I I FOUNDED % 1870 J PHILADELPHIA l CONSERVATORrofHUgC The Philadelphia I-'.usical Acadamy recently affiliated with the Philadelphia Conservatory of Kusic has novf combined faculties and student enrollments of both schools. The new building at I615 Spruce Street, acquired in July, now called ths annex, has been renovated and equipped. The new Director, A. Hendrick Drawee j and new President, I-'aria Ezerman Drake have taJcen over the duties of their new offices with zest. Dr. Jani Szanto, the fonser President and Director of the Philadelphia Kusical Acadamy, is always ready to advise and be of service. Many times we are asked, "//hy did the Philadelphia Conservatory of Kusic affiliate with the Philadelphia Kusical Acadamy?" This move was made to enable both institutions to form a strong college of Kusic in center city. The combined faculties are dedicated to offer the finest in music training, dance and education. Maria Ezerman Drake ...our first... .DEDICATION Mature achievement is the result of growth. Our Philadelphia Musical Academy is a product realized in uniting many minds and talents in a common effort.. Our school does not exist as a building on Spruce Street; it lives through the student axid administrative bodies which attain fulfillment in each other. Because you, the faculty and staff, have become in part what we are striving to become, for sharing with us the benefits of your experience and knowledge, we gratefully dedicate this, our first yearbook, to you the entire administration* ^ PRESIDENT'S message.... "Kay the guidance and knowledge which were yours while etuding and exploring the realms of music and dance at the Philadelphia l-!usical Academy, The Oonservatory of Music, and the Philadelphia Dance Academy serve to further and stimulate an ever curious and receptive attitude. I hope you will continue to look into the future fields of music and art while appreciating and understanding that of today and yester- day. Aim for your highest potential. The quality of your effort is generally commensurate with your success. Ambition is a marvelous attribute if supported by the confidence of true Knowledge. Keep an open mind and be ready to absorb new ideas. MARIA EZERMJ^ DRAKE, President In the future I hope you will stay in touch with your Alma Kater.." Sincere wishes for your sucess Maria Ezerman Drake DR. A3E PEPINSKY, Dean our DEAN speaks... "To you students who have made this Year Book possible we extend our heartiest congratulations. This really means starting a new tradition today. Many happy returns! Your effort represents a student conscious- ness which implies a loyalty to your alma mater. You are alumni in the making and your loyalty to the institution of your choice will help to build something of which you can be justly proud. Keep up the good work.. You may count on the faculty and administration to assist you in every possible way. We are proud of you,." Abe Pepineky, Dean DIRECTOR'S voice Ab the current Academy year draws to an end we are busily recording examination scores. These scores in company with the results of many other actions taken this year and with the suggestions and advice of others may, if carefully deliberated, lead us to discover better ways and means to progress in our endeavors. araduates, until this time the respon- sibility for keeping your score has rested upon the shoulders of the Academy administration. Now is the moment A.H^IDRIOX DRAKE, Director following which the world will look upon you as men and women and when the points tallied next to your name will each count far more heavily than before. However, as your scores mount to what I hope will be for many a very satisfactory total, I hope that your thirst for further advancement will not be quenched. Of more importance for all of us is to retain our curiosity, our desire to develop further skills and knowledge, and our use of not only these but all of our best personal qualities and competencies to influence others to follow in a similar manner. Before you go, I have one last request to make. Please keep us well supplied with news of what you are doing. I promise to see that it is passed along to your friends. Best wishes for your sucess and happiness. A. Hendrick Drake LEAH FARBER I^IARY K. TOMKINS FRAIJCIS WELSH LOUISE KLEIN SusinesB Manager Reaiistrar Staff Staff JAI^II SZAI^ITO VIRGINIA B. EMERSON President Smeritue Librarian Joseph Butterweck Joseph Castaldo Donald Ohittum Kent Christensen Gfrqmi^9tnm&yapA It is most rev;arding to be an integral part of a fine institution. This year has seen the grovrth of a new administration and the development of many student activities. Our Student Organization has the distinction of serving- as intermediary between the students and the administration. Our organization cannot help but grow and mature in proportion with the rate of development of the entire school. I am sure that this past year is but small indication of the many fine things that await our school. Jack Kelton President STUDENT JACK K3LT0N, President GOVERNMENT ROMAN PAWLOWSKI FRANCIS FANELLI VICKIE MYERS Vice-President Secretary Treasurer This year marks many new innocatione for P.M. A. We have a now school; new year- book and the advent of a newspaper. FANFARE is dedicated as the "voice of the students". In trying to establish a paper with this ideal in mind, we must search for infor- mation which will aid the students and benefit them. Also, in the same instance, we must open our newspaper to any major or minor issues, no matter what the subject, which might be pertinent to the students and perhaps eventually form a better school for them. As with any new institution, there is always need for revision and improvement. Because of this we will be turning from the graduating seniors to the incoming freshmen in September. This will be the beginning of a new staff and a corps to carry on the work. They will be the major factor in keeping our newspaper a welcome addition to the school. SCORE Within every student body there are at least a few students with initiative, drive, foresight, imagination, and, above all, de- sire to build prestige for their Alma Mater and create harmony among their fellow class- mates. With a student body as small as ours, we are extremely lucky to have such a vast number of these people who induce cohesive- nesB between student body and faculty. Through the work of the Student Organi- zation, our school paper materialized into the "student's voice". Then, from an idea came a dream: a dream of a student yearbook that would reflect the personality of P.M. A. throughout its pages. A yearbook that would build prestige for the school, show the har- mony within harmony, and serve as a lasting memore of our friends, experiences, and, above all, our struggle to educate ourselves so that we may be capable of attaining our goals in life and helping others to attain theirs. That dream materialized into a plan, which in turn was taken up as a project by those of us who wished it to become the THOMAS J. MELTON reality that it now has become. Sditor-in-Ohief Finally, after hours of concentration, days of planning, weeks of hoping, months of working, and a school year of tireless efforts we have finished our plans to create in reality our first P.M.

  • The Cliff's Edge (Songs of a Psychotic) on Songflower Press
    THE CLIFF’S EDGE (SONGS OF A PSYCHOTIC) BY MARGARET GARWOOD: AN EXPLORATION 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 Anne Christopherson, M.M. ***** The Ohio State University 2004 Document Committee: Approved by Dr. J. Robin Rice, Adviser Dr. R. J. David Frego Dr. C. Patrick Woliver Adviser Music Graduate Program ABSTRACT American composer, Margaret Garwood (b. 1927) possesses a gift for lyrical vocal writing and a deft hand with instrumental colors and textures. She has been the recipient of fellowships and awards from the National Endowment for the Arts, the MacDowell Colony, ASCAP, AMC, the National Opera Institute, and the National Federation of Music Clubs. Ms. Garwood’s compositional career is unique in that she did not begin to compose until her mid-thirties. In 1964, she and Miriam Gideon began a student-mentor relationship lasting until Gideon’s death in 1996. Before receiving her Master’s degree in Composition from the University of Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, she had already written two operas, several song cycles, a ballet, and a few smaller works. This document is an exploration of her song cycle, The Cliff’s Edge (Songs of a Psychotic). It was composed in 1969 but wasn’t published until 1988 when she established Sunflower Press. Hildegard Publishing Company, now under ownership of Theodore Presser, distributes most of her works. Individual studies of each song include explorations of the poetry, rhythm, vocal line, and accompaniment. The text originates from a collection of poetry of the same title by Eithne Tabor.
