and written. Practice is given also in the recognition and written
expression of music in two parts. The important phase of the aural
recognition of modulation in all nearly related keys.
Methods and Practice Teaching—2C.—This course is open only
to students who have completed the corresponding work prescribed
in Course 1C. The methods of the first four years are reviewed and
the work of each year above the fourth is taken up in detail. Instruction
is given for the proper training of the grade teacher and
the course is designed to help the Supervisor of Music with the
many problems of the school room, and to show her how to secure

tones and rhythms—i. e., singing mentally and in visualizing and
singing original melodies of four or eight measures. This course
includes (1) the structure of the minor scale in all its forms, (2)
elementary harmony; intervals and triads, (3) melody writing.
Written work daily is required.
High and Normal School Music—F.—All phases of a well-organized
course of music in the high and normal school are discussed.
These include classification of voices; organization of choruses with
proper seating of singers to secure an artistic blending of voice-parts;
glee clubs; the orchestra, its organization with regard to
kinds and numbers of instruments necessary under varying conditions,
and music suitable for orchestral work; elective courses in
music appreciation and elementary harmony; conducting with reference
to the special needs of a music supervisor.
