    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: SELECTED WORKS OF COMPOSERS ASSOCIATED WITH HOWARD UNIVERSITY Guericke Christopher Royal, Doctor of Musical Arts, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Chris Gekker School of Music Throughout its over 100 year history, Howard University has produced and attracted many talented composers of many musical genres. Limiting this project to any one genre or focus would have lessened the overall impact of the music they created and the inspiration that has been a lauded part of the institution. The project will demonstrate the various harmonic, melodic, rhythmic and emotional contributions of the selected composers through interpretation of their music on the trumpet. Composers have been connected to the university in three general ways: as students, alumni and faculty; as commissioned artists; and through the performance of their works by notable performers associated with Howard. The pieces selected for this project exemplify a wide range of musical expressions and compositional techniques, and hopefully have been presented in a way that allows the emotional impact of each piece to resonate in a unique fashion. The selected works tended to fall into the categories of A. Trumpet and Brass Works B. Spirituals/ Meditational/ Religious Works C. Popular and Jazz Pieces D. Organ or other Instrumental Works E. Works of Historical Reference or Significance In some cases, certain pieces may be categorized across multiple categories (e.g. an organ piece based on religious material). As this was also a recording project, great care was taken during the recording process to capture as much emotional content as possible through stereo microphone techniques and the use of high quality equipment.

  • Women in the Civil War
    Women in the Civil War Elizabeth Cady Stanton wrote in her autobiography that “the story of the Civil War will never be fully written if the achievements of women are left untold.”1 Of course, women played a very major role at home while their men went off to war. For many women, their son or sons, their husband, etc. would never return alive. Of course, with the men off fighting, the women had to run the farm, for example, and take full responsibility for the children. Unlike any previous war, women played an enormous part in the lives of soldiers’ family and home lives, and they had a significant hand in how the War progressed and eventually ended.2 Probably all of you would be able to point out that many women were nurses during the Civil War. That was an important role for many women. Did you know, however, that some women also were spies, undercover soldiers, vivandieres, laundresses, newspaper writers, housing troops etc.? 3 Let’s begin with the nursing role. At the outset of the war, thousands of women left their homes to take care of dying soldiers. At first, many men and even many doctors were angered by this new role. They felt that it was unlady-like for women to care for naked and enlisted men. As the war raged on, however, with the increasing casualties, the demand for women nurses skyrocketed. Even those doctors who had protested so loudly against women in the operating rooms with them had to silence themselves. Northern women organized the United States Sanitary Commission which ran kitchens, distributed medical supplies and inspected army camps to ensure a standard of cleanliness.
