Foreword
ONE of the outstanding features of public education is the
continuing evaluation of its instructional programs for the
improvement of opportunities offered the youth it serves. In-
creasingly, educators and school patrons are seeking ways to
provide additional opportunities for those students with excep-
tional interests and aptitudes. The music program in the high
school is organized and taught within the framework of group
instruction; therefore, Bulletin N41A sets forth a program of
utilizing the services of the studio teacher in extending and
supplementing this curriculum.
Local school administrators, studio and school music educa-
tors will find in this bulletin the outline of a program that affords
excellent opportunities for increasing the special abilities and
interests of a student in the realm of music as well as providing
high school credit for outside specialized instruction.
The Theory-Musicianship Courses which have been added to
this program deserve particular attention. They indicate an in-
creasing awareness of the importance of this phase of musical
growth. Students and teachers realize that theory must be
studied to extend the ability to use musical materials functionally
and develop independence in interpretation. Such an emphasis
characterizes this revision and challenges both teacher and stu-
dent to develop increased understanding in the use of music
literature.
In these respects the bulletin, it is believed, will bring a
closer relationship between the school and the private studio,
making available to each the services and resources of the other.
Working with the high school, a dedicated and qualified
studio teacher becomes a valuable community resource for those
students who by impulse and self-initiative move into this area
of interest for concentrated learning and refinement.

BULLETIN N41A, Music for High School Credit Under Private
Instruction, represents the unified efforts of teachers who
serve youth through music. While specific responsibilities were
undertaken by private studio teachers from the membership of
the Florida Music Teachers Association and music educators
from the membership of the Florida Music Educators Associa-
tion, many helpful and pertinent suggestions from the total
membership of both organizations are included in this bulletin.

History of the Program in Florida
O NE of the main objectives in organizing the Florida State
Music Teachers Association in Jacksonville, March 23, 1934,
was to secure high school credit toward graduation for private
music study.
The organization's efforts were rewarded. With the encour-
agement of former State Superintendent of Public Instruction,
Colin English, a committee including Mrs. Jessie Jay deVore,
Mrs. Charles M. Wells, Lyman P. Prior, with Mrs. M. B. Byrd
as Chairman, prepared the initial program authorizing credit
for private music study. Dr. Milton W. Carothers, at that time
Director of the Division of Instruction and Chairman of the
Courses of Study Committee, advised the committee during its
work, which culminated in an outlined program of study, pub-
lished in the Florida School Bulletin, Volume I, No. 5, December
15, 1938. In June, 1939, the music departments of both Stetson
University and Florida State College for Women offered "A
Summer Course for Private Music Teachers" for the purpose of
explaining and implementing this program.
In 1942, the bulletin was revised by a committee appointed
by Dean Ella Scoble Opperman, President of the Florida State
Music Teachers Association. Members of this committee con-
sisted of William Bailey, Robert Campbell, Jean Compton, Mrs.
Jessie J. deVore, John Rosser, Ann Wilby, Dr. W. E. Duckwitz,
Dr. Lyman Prior, and Mrs. M. B. Byrd, Chairman. The revised
course of study was adopted by the Florida State Department of
Education and printed in the Florida School Bulletin, Volume
IV, No. 11, June 1, 1942.
In 1948, Dean Karl O. Kuersteiner, President of the Florida
State Music Teachers Association, reported to State Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction Thomas D. Bailey on the advisabil-
ity of continuing and enlarging this program. The report pointed
out that the values of this program were reflected by better
preparation of students entering college and in the attitudes of
students who received recognition and additional stimulation.
It also recommended extending the scope of the credit program
to include all orchestral instruments and vocal study at all levels
of achievement, with a revision of materials and competencies
for each performance medium. The committee appointed by Su-
perintendent Bailey included Wilbur H. Marshall, Consultant in
the State Department of Education, Owen Sellers, Dean Ella
Scoble Opperman, Arved Larsen, Mrs. M. B. Byrd, Mrs. Edith
Voss, Mary Reeder, Frances Buxton, Robert Sedore, Roy T. Will,
Mrs. Sarah Folwell, Wallace Gause, Betty Jane Grimm, Otto
Kraushaar, Robert Braunagel, Robert T. Scott, and Dean Karl
O. Kuersteiner, Chairman. The third revision of this program
appeared in the Florida School Bulletin, Volume XII, No. 2,
published in December, 1949.
The Florida State Music Teachers Association gratefully ac-
knowledges the continued interest of Superintendent Bailey in
the advancement of music in Florida and the progress of this as-
sociation. The 1958 revision is made at his suggestion with the
assistance of Florida's Consultant in Music Education, David L.
Wilmot.

CHAPTER 1
Initiating the Program
M USIC for high school credit under private instruction is a
course unique within the structure of the secondary cur-
riculum of Florida high schools. Since the program involves the
granting of credit for instruction carried on outside the high
school, certain regulations and policies have been developed to
provide guidance for county staffs, high school principals, and
studio and school music educators. In several county systems of
the state these regulations and policies have already proved
successful in initiating and maintaining with understanding pro-
grams of this nature. Such programs, it is believed, make avail-
able to especially interested or talented students another effec-
tive learning resource in the community.
Purposes
I. Purposes of the Program
A. To fulfill the needs of the student who is interested or es-
pecially able in the realm of music by providing him with
an opportunity to grow the heritage of every Florida
youth.
B. To give credit for outside specialized work, actually an ex-
tension 'f study, to students whose abilities were discov-
ered and whose interest was developed in school music
programs.
C. To bring about a closer relationship between the school
and the private studio, making available to each the services
and resources of the other.
D. To recognize the valuable individual guidance given the
music student by the private teacher.
Regulations
II. Pertinent State Board of Education Regulations
A. The county board of public instruction may, upon the
recommendation of the county superintendent, authorize
the granting of school credit for music work taken under
the supervision of a private teacher as follows:
1. Not more than one unit in music may be credited toward
graduation for work done under the supervision of a
private teacher. Not more than one-half unit for work
done under the supervision of a private teacher may be
credited in any one school year. For this maximum credit
of one-half unit the pupil must produce evidence of
having taken two lessons per week of not less than thirty
minutes each, and six hours of practice per week. One-
fourth unit of credit may be granted for one lesson and
not less than five hours of practice per week. The grant-
ing of credit shall be contingent upon satisfactory prog-
ress as evidenced by an examination to be given by a
designated public school music teacher or by other com-
petent examiner, as provided for by the State Department
regulations.
2. The State Department of Education shall publish outlines
governing the scope of the work for which credit may
be given and such other supplementary regulations as
may be necessary. (Adopted by State Board March 21,
1950, page 8; Sections 228.14 (3) and 230.23 (9-a).
B. Private Instruction-Work done under private instruction
may be accepted for credit toward graduation provided:
1. The credit is for music instruction.
2. The work is done outside school hours, or under super-
vision of principal.
3. The instruction is strictly in accordance with other State
Board regulations.
4. The total pupil load for regular term does not exceed 6
units including one-half unit under private instruction.
(Standards for Accreditation of Florida Schools, adopted
by State Board April 20, 1954, and amended March 26,
1957; Sections 229.07 (3) and 229.16 (4) ).
Policies
III. Supplementary Policies of the State Department
of Education
A. General Policies
1. In each county where credit for music under private in-
struction is desired, the county superintendent of schools
shall appoint a committee with the specific responsibility
of initiating or implementing this program. When pos-
sible, this committee shall consist of a representative from
his staff, a high school principal, a school music educator,
and a committee from the studio-teacher group. It shall
be the responsibility of this committee to organize or
strengthen the program by:
a. Promoting understanding of its purposes and values.
b. Establishing a procedure for effective operation within
the educational program of a county.
c. Providing for evaluation and examination.
d. Approving and certifying studio teachers who are not
members of the Florida State Music Teachers Asso-
ciation.
2. Credit may not be given for work done under private in-
struction for courses similar to those available in the
regular school program.
3. A student desiring credit shall make application to the
principal for tentative approval within the first two weeks
of the school year. The principal may deny the applica-
tion, if in his judgment such a decision would be for the
best interest of the student.
4. A student may enroll for the same, a lower, or a higher
course in music than his high school classification, de-
pending upon his previous musical training. Upon the
recommendation of his private teacher and with the ap-
proval of his high school principal, a student may con-
tinue in the same course level for a second year pro-
viding:
a. The literature studied is different from that of the pre-
vious year.
b. The student demonstrates increased musical under-
standing and technical proficiency.
5. Flexibility in assignment to the achievement level or
course level most appropriate for a student's musical
growth is permitted so that:
a. A student who is able to fulfill the requirements of the
last course in his medium early in his high school
career may continue in this program if he wishes;
b. A student whose needs and development would be met
better by continuing in the same course level another
year may receive credit for doing so.
6. Each private teacher desiring credit for one or more stu-
dents shall file promptly and completely all reports which
may be requested by the school authorities.
7. While only one unit of work in music under private in-
struction may be used to meet graduation requirements,
it is important that any additional units or fractions of
units earned be properly recorded on a student's record.
B. Studio Teacher Certification The county superintendent
and board of public instruction recognize the necessity of
assuring high school principals, parents, and students of
private teachers instruction commensurate with that offered
in the public school music program. A studio teacher who
wishes to present students in this program must be certi-
ficated under one of the following plans:
1. Certificate of Preparation.
a. He must hold a degree, diploma, or teaching certificate
indicating preparation in a specific instrument from a
recognized college or university. His courses shall in-
clude at least four in the humanities or education, a
minimum of two courses in methods and materials, and
practice teaching of the instrument he wishes to teach.
(A course is defined as 32 hours of class membership
or practice lessons.)
2. Requirements for Certificate of Experience and Prepara-
tion.
a. To be certified under Plan A, an applicant who is al-
ready a member of the Florida State Music Teachers
Association must have:
(1) A high school education or its equivalent.
(2) A record of at least ten years of satisfactory experi-
ence in teaching.
*b. To be certified under Plan B, an applicant must have:
(1) A high school education.
(2) Three years of study on college level of the instru-
ment he wishes to teach.

musicianship of four students at various levels of
advancement.
(c) An examination of the teacher covering composi-
tions played by students in their demonstration.
(4) Any three of the following:
(a) An acceptable technical and interpretative per-
formance of advanced repertoire of all periods.
(b) A demonstration of keyboard skills: reading, im-
provising, accompanying, and transposing.
(c) A paper on some phase of music training.
(d) A paper on music history, literature, or current
events.
(e) A special research project completed under the
supervision of a recognized music educator.
* In the event a non-member of this association desires to qualify under Plans B and C,

d. These requirements parallel the certification require-
ments of the Florida State Music Teachers Association.
C. Procedure for Securing County Approval
1. A studio teacher certificated by this association must pre-
sent his Florida State Music Teacher's certificate for ap-
proval and for recording by the county superintendent
or his representative.
2. A studio teacher who is not a member of this association
must present to the county superintendent or his repre-
sentative a transcript of his collegiate record and a state-
ment by the chairman of the local committee that he has
satisfactorily fulfilled the certification requirements of
one of the preceding plans.
D. The Student's Responsibility
1. Formal application for this credit shall be made by the
student to his high school principal within two weeks of
the opening of school on Form No. 1.
2. For one-half unit of credit the student may take two les-
sons of thirty minutes each or one lesson of sixty minutes
each week throughout the school year; one thirty-minute
lesson each week will earn one-fourth unit of credit.
3. At the end of each year's work the student must success-
fully pass an examination given by a competent ex-
aminer.
E. The Studio Teacher's Responsibilities
1. Assigning the student to a specific course of study and
notifying the high school principal of the assigned course
before the beginning of the second semester.

c. The list of material studied by student.
d. His informal and formal public appearances.
e. A record of his service to the school, church, and com-
munity organizations.
3. Giving specific attention to technical control and to the
development of theory-musicianship within the structure
of each student's program.
4. Determining the final grade and submitting it to the high
school principal at the beginning of the examination week
on Form 3.
5. Stimulating interest in and appreciation for all media of

CHAPTER 2
Theory-Musicianship Courses of Study
T HE ADDITION of Theory-Musicianship as a requirement in this
program will mean adjustments for such individual stu-
dents as those advanced in technical facility but with less ex-
perience in the basic musicianship requirements as found in
Courses I or II. It is also possible for the reverse situation to
occur. In such cases, the teacher and his student should elect
the course of study in Theory-Musicianship that they feel can
be completed by the end of the year regardless of the repertoire
course number.
Moreover, a student shall include in his program of study
additional technical material essential to the unique demands of
his medium. This information is not always included in the
Theory-Musicianship Course but will be found in the introduction
to each course of study.
A music student should be articulate about the materials of
which music is made. He should know the symbols for sounds
and their combinations. He should understand the measurement
of music in time, pitch distances, and intensity. He needs a
vocabulary with which to communicate with his fellow musicians:
"Give me the tonic chord, and I'll take my entrance on the up-
beat. Let's start at the fourth measure after the modulation to
E major."
By dissecting music and becoming familiar with its integral
parts, a person is able to "put it together" more intelligently and
artistically. By using these materials creatively, he becomes
aware of the structure of a musical whole and is able to feel the
intentions of composers and interpret their music more accurately
and sympathetically. In the appendix the Theory-Musician-
ship Courses of Study are summarized on a chart. The material
presented in these courses of study represents a body of knowl-
edge and skills every high school musician should aim to possess
in addition to the skill of playing artistically a prepared reper-
toire. The listings in columns 1-10 and the prescribed procedures
in columns 11, 12, and 13 are presented to students and their
teachers not primarily as examination requirements for credit
but as a curriculum guide throughout the year. Functional use
of theoretical material should be integrated with every music-
making lesson.

Since intelligent playing and understanding depend upon the
ear, the eye, the brain, and the neuro-muscular response, the
student should be prepared for doing the following on each item
of "theory" listed:
1. RECOGNIZE by sound or sight and identify (Name it.)
2. DISTINGUISH, when occurring among other sounds or
symbols
3. PERFORM (sing or play)
4. WRITE on the board or manuscript paper
5. SHOW examiner example from repertoire
6. DISCOVER in a piece of unfamiliar music
These are examples of what the student should be prepared
to do on such an item of "theory" as INTERVALS, Column 10,
Course I:
TEACHER OR EXAMINER
a. (plays two successive tones) "what
is this interval?"
b. "I shall play a succession of 3 in-
tervals; raise your hand at the
sound of the major third."
c. "Play for me a major third, the bot-
tom tone D natural."
d. "Now write the interval."
e. "In a piece of music which you have
played, show me a major 3rd."
(turns to another page)
f. "Now show me a major third on
this page."
STUDENT
"A major third."
(He does; if in a group
he writes the correct
number in sequence.)
(He does, sounds D
and F#.)
(He does.)
(He shows teacher or
examiner major 3rd
from a repertoire piece.)
(He does.)
Throughout the year, interesting group procedures and
techniques can be developed by students themselves taking
turns playing the part of the Examiner or Teacher. This is help-
ful for those students who are registered for one-fourth unit of
credit.
At all times, examinations should avoid exclusively oral or
written definitions, divorced from sound. The examiner will not
give an exhaustive test on every listing in every column but will
select arbitrarily one or more items in each course and follow the
procedure similar to that just outlined.
CHAPTER 3
Courses of Study-Piano
FoR HIS piano examination requirements the student shall be
prepared to play three compositions, two of which must be
chosen from the recommended list; one of these three must be
memorized. He must present a list of at least eight compositions
(including ensemble works) which he has studied in the course
of a year. Each movement of.a sonata, suite, or a study of reason-
able length may count as a piece studied. Six of the eight should
be chosen from the published lists. He must play at sight music
of a grade easier than that for which he is being examined.
Finally, he shall demonstrate his understanding and use of the
requirements in Theory-Musicianship outlined in his assigned
course of study.
Minimum Technical Requirements
Technique in this program is defined as dexterity and tonal
and rhythmical control in playing. It has been divided in the
following outline into four minimum levels which need not
parallel repertoire courses. Instead, it is understood that the
teacher will move the student into whatever scale, chord, or
arpeggio study best meets his physical and musical development.
Additional studies and exercises will be assigned at the discre-
tion of the teacher to help the student meet the increasing de-
mands of his performance of piano literature.
Despite the flexibility of this outline, it is felt the material
of one entire technical course as outlined can be adequately
covered in one year, allowing the student to move ahead into the
next technical course or to an extension of the same one with
more demands as to tempi and control.
Course I
A keyboard knowledge and facility of major and tonic minor
scales through two octaves at least, beginning on white keys. A
knowledge of the signatures of these major and minor scales.
Minor and major chords, root position, and a functional use of
V7 chord, i.e., use in harmonization of simple melodies.
Course II
A keyboard knowledge and facility of major and minor scales
beginning on black keys.
Major and minor chords in first and second inversions and
diminished and augmented chords in root position. A functional
use of I, IV, V, V7.
Course III
A review of all scales.
Continuing functional use of I, IV, V, V7, along with sec-
ondary chords.
Major and tonic minor arpeggios, all positions.
Course IV
A review of all scales with emphasis on all signatures in-
cluding relative and tonic minors. Continuing harmonization of
melodies including use of all chords and modulations through V7.
Major and minor arpeggios, all positions.
Diminished sevenths and dominant seventh arpeggios, all
positions.

Students of the Baritone Horn should follow either the Trumpet or
Trombone course of study depending upon the choice of clef. It is
strongly advised that the student learn both clefs and choose material
from both courses of study.
NOTE: Because of the scarcity of good methods, studies, or
solo repertoire for the tuba, it is suggested that the
student learn to read trombone and baritone (bass
clef) music down one octave, thereby adding consid-
erably to his choice of material.

TECHNIQUE
Tone
Proper use of breath control should result in finer control of
tone, greater flexibility, extended duration, and refined

Tone
Emphasis should be on a uniformity of tone quality through-
out all registers. Studies should be included to increase range,
flexibility, and endurance.
Scales and Arpeggios
Scale studies should be extended by the addition of minor
scales, at least in one form. These should be played in two
octaves, as eighth notes, M.M. J = 92. The minor arpeggios
should also be studied. The chromatic scales should be ex-
tended over the entire normal playing range.
Articulation
The single tongue should be developed to sixteenth notes
played at M.M. J = 116. Triple and double tonguing should
be introduced.
Transposition
Bb trumpet players should be able to transpose C and A parts.
Horn players should be able to play parts in F, Eb, C#, and
D and read bass clef parts.

CHAPTER 10
Courses of Study -Percussion Instruments
FOR the percussion instrument examination the student shall
be prepared to play any of the RUDIMENTS or other rhyth-
mic figures outlined 'n his course of study for the year's work.
He shall be prepared to play one solo selection from the chosen
course (or equivalent to that level) for each of the major instru-
ments being studied under that course heading. He shall be
required to play at sight a composition of a grade easier than
that for which he is being examined. This requirement shall ap-
ply to each of the percussion instruments involved in the chosen
course of study. Excerpts of percussion parts from band and or-
chestral literature should be included. In addition, he shall dem-
onstrate his understanding and use of the requirements outlined
in his assigned Theory-Musicianship course of study.
The four complete courses of percussion study are conceived
as an integrated program in which the student develops a play-
ing ability on each instrument of that section. The importance
of continued study on the snare drum is indicated by the fact
that it continues to share an important part in the training in all
course levels. The tympani are added to Course II; the melodic
percussion instruments to Course III; and the remaining per-
cussion instruments are added to Course IV.
The list of material may be expanded with the use of similar
studies of equal quality.
Course I
The Snare Drum
Tone
Proper tuning of the instrument and correct stick control
largely determine the quality of tone production.
Rudiments
The long roll, the various short rolls as needed, the flam, ruff,
single paradiddle, and additional flam beats should be devel-
oped in a functional manner. In addition, the basic rhythmic
pattern of the triplet, which is not listed in the twenty-six
basic rudiments, should be stressed in this period of training.
Sight Reading
This ability can be developed effectively through the continu-
ous reading of parts from the band and orchestral literature.

Solos and Ensembles
During Course I, solo and ensemble material should be drawn pri-
marily from methods similar to those suggested above.
Course II
The Snare Drum and the Tympani
Tone
Studies on the snare drum continue at an advanced level.
The tympanist is required to develop proper control of tym-
pani sticks; he should demonstrate thorough understanding
of the care of tympani heads to assure the best tonal results
from the instrument; and he should be taught the proper
positions for playing the instruments.
Technique
It is imperative that he develop the ability to tune the
tympani quickly, quietly, and efficiently. He must study to de-
velop an accurate sense of relative pitch. He should become
acquainted with a wide variety of literature in the field. He
should learn proper stick technique and should work to
develop a smooth and effective roll on the tympani.
Sight Reading
The tympanist and snare drummer should gain experience in
reading a large amount of band and orchestral material. The
snare drummer, now working at a more advanced level, is
expected to perform with greater accuracy and at higher
levels of difficulty the band and orchestral materials with
which he comes in contact.

Solos and Ensembles
The NARD book mentioned in studies for the snare drum is an excel-
lent source of solo material at this level, and similar solos, commen-
surate with the rate of progress and at a level with those in this col-
lection, should be used by the student. Ensemble material should be
representative of a difficulty level just below or the same as that of
the solo material being studied. The tympanist will have little opportu-
nity for solo work beyond that normally allotted him in various band
and orchestral compositions.

Course III
The Snare Drum and the Mallet Instruments
Tone
By this time the snare drummer will be expected to exhibit
a marked degree of skill in his playing. Great facility in the
handling of the sticks and the snare drum itself will be ex-
pected. The player of mallet instruments will be taught the
fundamentals of holding the sticks in relation to the bells,
xylophone, or marimba, whichever is available to him for
study, or to a combination of these. Various types of sticks
and their uses will be studied for each instrument as well as
the stick approach used on different instruments in this group.
Technique
The snare drummer is expected to continue his study of the
twenty-six rudiments listed by the National Association of
Rudimental Drummers and to understand their functional
application to the musical situation. The xylophone, marimba,
or bell player must study the rudiments of musical theory
inasmuch as he is dealing with a melodic as well as a rhythmic
instrument. It is expected that he will become aware of those
elements of musical composition directly involved in the
studies of pieces before him. In addition, facility in the use
of the sticks will be advanced through careful study and
practice.
Sight Reading
The snare drummer should continue reading a wide range of
band and orchestral material with greater attention to per-
formance accuracy. Application of basic rudiments to this
reading should be made consistently and with the utilitarian
value of the rudiments in mind. The instrumentalist dealing
with the mallet instrument should have an opportunity to
study bell parts from a wide variety of band and orchestral
literature in addition to the careful preparation of solo works.
Musicianship
The snare drummer in Course III is expected to exhibit
musicianship not only in his skill with the instrument but
also in his knowledge of musical rudiments, including theory
and notation. The percussionist studying the mallet instru-
ments will be expected to exhibit a definite musical approach
to the performance of these pieces and studies.
Materials for the Snare Drum
In Course III, the snare drummer is expected to continue his
previous studies on a higher level and with a greater degree
of perfection. His selection of solos may still be drawn from
those materials suggested in Course II and from additional
materials at an advanced level.

Course IV
The Snare Drum and the Complete Percussion Section
It is intended that this be a year of integrated study in
which the individual develops his abilities to perform on all the
percussion instruments commonly used in musical composition.
Individual playing ability on all of these instruments should be
developed. Work continues with special attention directed toward
the particular interests of the student. Proper playing techniques
on all the individual and accessory items of the section, such as
the tambourine, tom-toms, castanets, triangle, and the gongs,
should be studied. The proper methods of playing the bass drum
and cymbals are of particular importance for the well-rounded
percussionist. Actual experience in the band and orchestra in
playing these instruments is representative of the most effective
learning situation. It is expected that the snare drum should
continue to be a major area of study.
Sight Reading
It is expected that the individual will develop his sight read-
ing ability in all the fields involved. He should be capable of
reading from scores representative of combinations of these
instruments and should be able to change from one instru-
ment to another within the section without difficulty.
Musicianship
This area must be developed to a high degree, and much is to
be expected of the percussionist at this level. He must exhibit
a thorough knowledge of musical rudiments not only melodic
and rhythmic but also harmonic as well.
Materials
At this level and for the variety of instruments involved, an
important source of material is the organizational literature
with which the student is regularly in contact. For the
snare drum and mallet instruments, additional materials
will largely represent an increase in the difficulty of com-
positions studied. The snare drummer should be able to per-
form the solos listed in the NARD Book of 150 Rudimental
Drum Solos or works similar to these in difficulty. Materials
for the smaller instruments of the band and orchestra per-
cussion sections can be found in the literature of these sec-
tions. Additional materials for advanced study of the bells,
xylophone, and marimba are listed as suggestive of the type
of work which should be carried on in the second year of mal-
let study. In many cases, methods and materials suggested
for previous courses on any of the percussion instruments
contain pieces and exercises which are at a higher level than
the year in which the book itself was suggested. These should
be continued in Course IV.
