In the latter half of the twentieth century, the School of Music extended its influence and invitation to the finest musicians worldwide, seeking students of extraordinary artistic and intellectual talent to pursue their advanced musical studies with its illustrious faculty. These students and fac- ulty contribute to and benefit from the international distinction of Yale University, which not only cherishes its academic heritage but also places great value on all of the fine arts. Yale is renowned for its libraries, art galleries, historical collections, and theatrical presentations, and for its rich concert life. The eleven other professional schools at the University, the Graduate School, and Yale College itself contribute to the vibrant social and educational environment. The city of New Haven and its surrounding towns o≠er an abundance of cultural and recreational opportunities through their historical villages, diverse neighborhoods, charming shops, fine restaurants, beaches, and orchards. While Yale has virtually inexhaustible cultural resources, its close proximity to New York and Boston broadens the possibilities for an enhanced student experience. The School of Music Bulletin is far more than a collection of policies, degree pro- grams, and faculty profiles. It reflects a community that is fully committed to the highest musical ideals. It is a blueprint for those who will assume the mantle of cultural leader- ship. It is a reflection of a School steeped in tradition yet shaping the future. It is a brief sampling of what you might expect from your time in this place. Whether you intend to perform, coach, teach, research, direct, compose, publish, cri- tique, edit, manage, or lead, consider the opportunities for a challenging and significant immersion in everything that Yale University has to o≠er. The faculty and sta≠ of the Yale School of Music wish you much success in your time here and in your musical pursuits. Mission Statement The Yale School of Music educates and inspires students with exceptional artistic and academic talent for service to the profession and to society. The School fosters a vibrant musical environment where graduate-level performers and composers realize their high- est artistic potential with an internationally distinguished faculty. To prepare students for roles as cultural leaders, the School engages fully with the University’s extraordinary intellectual and technological resources while collaborating with artistic centers through- out the world.

  • Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 88
    BOSTON SYMPHONY v^Xvv^JTa Jlj l3 X JlVjl FOUNDED IN 1881 BY HENRY LEE HIGGINSON THURSDAY A SERIES EIGHTY-EIGHTH SEASON 1968-1969 Exquisite Sound From the palaces of ancient Egypt to the concert halls of our modern cities, the wondrous music of the harp has compelled attention from all peoples and all countries. Through this passage of time many changes have been made in the original design. The early instruments shown in drawings on the tomb of Rameses II (1292-1225 B.C.) were richly decorated but lacked the fore-pillar. Later the "Kinner" developed by the Hebrews took the form as we know it today. The pedal harp was invented about 1720 by a Bavarian named Hochbrucker and through this ingenious device it be- came possible to play in eight major and five minor scales complete. Today the harp is an important and familiar instrument providing the "Exquisite Sound" and special effects so important to modern orchestration and arrange- ment. The certainty of change makes necessary a continuous review of your insurance protection. We welcome the opportunity of providing this service for your business or personal needs.
