The Importation of Arms and the 1912 Mormon "Exodus" from Mexico B. CARMON HARDY and MELODY SEYMOUR In the hot, dry days of late July and early August 1912, thousands of North Americans raced north across the border into the United States at El Paso, Texas and Hachita, New Mexico. Due to revolutionary vio lence in Mexico, refugees had filtered north for months. This latest, unexpected wave was by far the largest. It consisted mostly of polyga mous families from Mormon colonies in Chihuahua and Sonora. Crowded into makeshift facilities at the EI. Paso lumber yard and a quickly constructed tent city at Hachita, their presence soon became the object of curious journalists. Many outside the area became aware for the first time that Mormons, or Latter~day Saints, lived south ofthe United States-Mexican border and had resided there for a generation.' The earliest arrivals consisted chiefly of women and children shepherded by male guardians. -
Musical Form in Hymns
MUSICAL FORM IN HYMNS OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS By Nathan Robert Bigler A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of MusiC Northern Arizona University May 2018 Approved: Stephen C. Brown, Ph.D., Chair Timothy Alan Smith, Ph.D. Jennifer J. Russell, Ph.D. ABSTRACT MUSICAL FORM IN HYMNS OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS NATHAN ROBERT BIGLER Hymn singing is an integral part of both Congregational and private worship for millions aCross the globe. While hymns have been the subjeCt of research regarding history, origins, and cultural influence, there has been very little researCh regarding musiCal forms and harmoniC struCtures found in nineteenth- and twentieth-Century Protestant hymns. In disCussing form, many theory texts desCribe the bulk of modern hymn musiC as “strophic.” Using William Caplin’s text Classical Form (1998) as a model of analytiCal teChniques and prinCiples, this thesis examines the Mormon collection Hymns of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (1985) and reveals that “strophic” is too narrow a label for an entire hymnal. Four formal models and one harmoniC struCture emerge. EaCh is identified by speCifiC musiCal CharaCteristiCs (illustrated using hymn examples), and together these five struCtures enCompass a majority of the 341 hymns in the hymnal. Chapter 1 gives a brief historical review of Protestant hymn development and of the LDS hymnal. Chapter 2 disCusses the analytiCal methods used in this study. Chapter 3 introduces the two smaller multi-phrase models: the “small-sCale model” that manifests as any of several variations of an aaba phrase structure; and the “two-phrase model” that manifests as an extremely CompaCt binary structure. -
