History of Music Education in the U.S.A.
18th century
After the preaching of Reverend Thomas Symmes, the first singing edifice was created in 1717 in Boston, Massachusetts for the purposes of improving singing and penalization reading in the church. These singing schools gradually distribute throughout the colonies. Reverend Evangelist Tufts published An Introduction to the Singing of Psalm Tunes Using Non-Traditional Notation which is regarded as the first penalization textbook in the colonies. Between 1700 to 1820, more than 375 tune books would be published by such authors as Samuel Holyoke, Francis Hopkinson, William Billings, and Oliver Holden.
19th century
In 1832, Lowell Mason and George Webb formed the Beantown Academy of Music with the purposes of doctrine singing and theory as well as methods of doctrine music. Mason published his Manuel of Instruction in 1834 which were based upon the penalization education works of Pestalozzian System of Education founded by land educator Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi. This handbook gradually became used by many singing edifice teachers. From 1837-1838, the Beantown School Committee allowed Lowell Mason to inform penalization in the Hawes School as a demonstration. This is regarded as the first instance penalization education was introduced to public schools in the United States. In 1838 the Beantown School Committee authorised the inclusion of penalization in the curriculum and Lowell Mason became the first recognized supervisor of elementary music. In later years Luther Whiting Mason became the Supervisor of Music in Beantown and distribute penalization education into all levels of public education (grammar, primary, and high school). During the middle of the 19th century, Beantown became the model to which many other cities across the United States included and shaped their public edifice penalization education programs. Music epistemology for teachers as a course was first introduced in the Normal School. The concept of classroom teachers in a edifice that taught penalization under the direction of a penalization supervisor was the standard model for public edifice penalization education during this century.
Early 20th century
In the United States, doctrine colleges with four year degree programs developed from the Normal Schools and included music. Oberlin Conservatory first offered the Bachelor of Music Education degree. Osbourne G. McCarthy, and American penalization educator introduced details for studying penalization for credit in Chelsea High School. Notable events in the history of penalization education in the early 20th century also include:
• Founding of the Music Supervisor's National Conference (changed to Music Educators National Conference in 1934, later MENC: The National Association for Music Education in 1998) in Keokuk, Iowa in 1907.
• Rise of the edifice band and orchestra movement leading to performance oriented edifice penalization programs.
• Growth in penalization methods publications.
• Frances Elliot Clark develops and promotes phonograph achievement libraries for edifice use.
• Carl Seashore and his Measures of Musical Talent penalization aptitude test starts testing people in music.
