The School Musician Director and Teacher (The School Musician) was an American magazine for music educators that ran fifty-seven years, from October 1929 (Vol. 1, N° 1) to December 1986 (Vol. 58, N° 4) — 10 issues per year, monthly, but skipping two months each summer. The magazine was founded as The School Musician, and was issued under that name until 1964. The issue numbers started with September, each year, except for the inaugural issue of October 1929.

Staff

The fifty-seven-year run endured under five editors and three owners/publishers.

Location

The magazine was published in Chicago from inception until the mid-1950s, then nearby Joliet, Illinois, until the mid-1970s, then — from the mid-1970s through its final issue — Chicago.

Target

The magazine was edited for the world of its contributors that included school music directors and other music educators (at all levels, from preschool to major music schools in higher education), teachers, performing artists, parents, students, experts in the music trades, and education policymakers. The magazine was a resource for the music trade and music educators at the scholastic and collegiate levels, dealing primarily with school, collegiate, and conservatory wind ensembles, school orchestras, choruses, opera workshops, marching bands, festivals, and contests. The School Musician became an influential forum on music education curricula as well as education policy in North America.

Era

The era of the magazine's launch, and its early years, was at the vanguard of a scholastic and collegiate movement in curricular music education across North America that was unique in the world.[1] The "school band movement in America," as it is commonly known, greatly influenced the expansion of instrumental music education in public schools.[2][3] The school band movement has not been fully replicated in Europe. Universities in North America — that is, non-conservatories — were developing comprehensive music education programs that incorporated professional training of traditional conservatories with academic offerings of research in music with the professional training of teachers colleges. The popularity of music education built more critical mass at universities which allowed more latitude to offer more comprehensive music programs. For instance, several collegiate opera workshops were able to produce fully mounted operas. Primary and secondary schools elevated music education as standard curricula, but with the added dimension of interscholastic solo and ensemble contests. Moreover, football season show bands of high schools and colleges at interscholastic and intercollegiate football games became standard in North America. At the same time, musical instrument manufacturing and merchandising, with a particular focus on student musicians, was a high-growth industry in North America. Demand and opportunities for music educators at all levels were unprecedented.

Influence and editorial bent

The editorial bent was progressive on several levels. For example, in its fifth issue, February 1930, the magazine published an article advocating women in music,[a] which might not seem extraordinary in current times, but that particular article has been cited by scholars for decades, namely, as an early turning point. As early as 1939,[TSM 1] and throughout its history, the magazine advocated for jazz education.[TSM 2] Submissions were not peer reviewed, per se; but, were solicited and overseen by an editorial advisory board.

Editors and publishers

[edit]
Editors-in-Chief
Shepherd
1929–1951 		Robert L. Shepherd (né Romack L. Shepherd; 30 September 1886 – Tipton, Indiana – 28 September 1957 Chicago)[5] was the founding editor, publisher, and owner. The first issue was dated October 1929. Shepherd remained as editor until 1948 and remained as owner until 1951.

Shepherd was, from 1924 to 1928, an advertising manager for Buescher Band Instrument Company in Elkhart, Indiana.[6][7] Shepherd had been nominated for the "Advertising Hall of Fame," for his guiding force behind the advertising campaign of Buescher, and for being one of Elkhart's leading citizens.[8][9] Also, in 1927, while working in advertising for Buescher, Shepherd became editor of its True-Tone Musical Journal (OCLC 47972389, 247815019), which in 1925, had a circulation of 300,000. As editor of True-Tone, Shepherd increased the issues from quarterly to monthly. He was editor of about 18 monthly issues, beginning January 1927, Vol. 17, N° 1, and ending May 1928, Vol. 18, No° 6[10] Ernest Douglas Dennis (1897–1980) replaced Shepherd at Buescher as Advertising Manager and Editor of True-Tone, beginning the June 1928 issue, Vol. 18, N° 7. True-Tone eventually returned to being a quarterly publication.

Before working for Buescher, beginning 1919, Shepherd was in charge of advertising for United States Music Company, manufacturer of piano rolls. In 1918, Shepherd had been working in Texas[11]

While Shepherd was editor of The School Musician, the magazine amassed a high quantity of articles aimed at improving musicianship, for both educators and students.[12]Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name (see the help page).Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name (see the help page).In 1954, Shepherd moved to the Preston Hollow area of Dallas. While on a visit to Chicago, he died in a hotel September 28, 1957, two days shy of his 71st birthday. He was survived by his wife, Marian Elizabeth Mengle (maiden; 1904–2000), who he married after the death of his first wife Irene Rahte (1888–1928), a school teacher who died in Elkhart of complications from an appendicitis. Shepherd is buried at Graceland Cemetery, Chicago.
Harpham
1948–1951 		John Wood Harpham (1919–1981), hired by Shepherd, had been an advertising executive. He had earned a Bachelor of Science degree for Northwestern University in 1941. After his tenure Editor of The School Musician, he pursued advertising in Chicago and become a founding executive of his own firm.

1951–1976 		Forrest Lee McAllister (1912–2001), on April 1, 1951 — after three months of intensive training to become editor-in-chief and publisher — purchased The School Musician, then located at 28 East Jackson Boulevard, Chicago.[TSM 3] He was the son of Archie Raymond McAllister (1883–1944), a legendary-long-standing Band Master of the Joliet Township High School Band, and posthumously dubbed, "Father of the school band movement in America" (several others also own this title). Forrest McAllister (1912–2001) had been an ex-field representative for the American Music Conference, a non-profit music promotion organization,[c] resigned to become editor and publisher of The School Musician, which he purchased in mid-December 1950.[13] Leading up to his foray as editor, owner, and publisher, McAllister, before World War II, had taught public school, but left to enlist in the U.S. Army where he directed the Music Department of the School for Special Services at Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Virginia. As editor, the magazine prospered, providing news and pedagogy oriented articles for music educators. In 1978, while McAllister was still running it, the magazine had over 125,000 readers in forty-eight states and twenty-one foreign countries.[14][TSM 4] In 1976, McAllister went into semi-retirement and appointed George Littlefield as editor-in-chief.
Littlefield
1976–1980 		George Louis Littlefield, Jr. (1942–2015), since 1970, had worked, and had been Managing Editor, for PTM World of Music ISSN 0030-8358, a trade publication first issued March 1907, formerly known as Piano Trade Magazine and Music Trade Indicator. In the 1970s, the magazine was issued by the Piano Trade Publisher of Chicago. PTM was published and edited by Robert E. Allan — 1973 "Man of the Year," according the the Piano Technicians Guild. In 1962, Littlefield earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Illinois Wesleyan University. As the last living editor of The School Musician, Littlefield died of cancer in Chicago, December 28, 2015.[15]

Notes
  1. ^ The bias against school-age girls in music is encapsulated in a 2013 Masters of Music Thesis by Marsha Croskey Kincade at Bowling Green State University,

    "Early in the school band movement, participation was restricted to boys with male directors. If girls participated, they would do so in girls-only ensembles. The shift in this practice can been seen in a 1930 article published in The School Musician, which defends the right and ability of girls to participate in school bands without being detrimental to the overall ensemble. The author acknowledges stereotypes held by some male high school band directors at the time such as 'girls ruin the appearance of a band' and 'girls do not learn wind instruments as well as boys.' He goes on to argue the fairness of current practices in relationship to the current educational trends, the small importance uniformity plays in comparison to the music, and the ability of girls to learn instruments based on his personal experience." (OCLC 865473614)

  3. ^ The American Music Conference (www.amc-music.org.) is a national non-profit educational association that was founded in 1947 in Chicago. When it was founded, it represented the music trade, namely merchants, piano manufacturers, instrument manufacturers, and standard music publishers. The impetus for creating the organization came from the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) as advocates of music education and researchers for the trade that serves education. AMC is currently based in based in Carlsbad, California. AMC is dedicated to promoting music, music making, and music education to the general public. Sometime around 2003, AMC merged with NAMM
  4. ^ The article was a retort to article by Hubert P. Henderson, "Jazz — Music Education’s 'Four-Letter Word'" in the January 1964 issue of Music Journal that criticized jazz education as, among other things, degenerate; Breeden highlighted the endless opportunity for creativity and musicianship; He argued that the purpose of jazz education was "to give the student as complete a background of preparation for performance as possible, based on good musicianship;" He stated that "the school approach to jazz should be education first and entertainment second"

    Henderson had also published the article "Musi-Caterers and Stage Band-Its" in the January 1964 issue of Music Journal, to which Rayburn Wright retorted in the February 1964 issue of Music Journal, Vol. 22, N° 2, under the title, "IS" The Stage Band Ruining Music Education?"; Henderson (né Hubert Platt Henderson; born 1918), among other things, served as Director of Instrumental Music at the University of Maryland, College Park from 1955 to 1965; Henderson held three degrees from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, earning his PhD in Musicology in 1961. In 1967, Two years after Henderson left his position at Maryland, and three years after he wrote the articles, jazz education rapidly flourished at nearby Towson University under Hank Levy

    Henderson was the founding editor-in-chief of the Journal of Band Research, which launched Autumn 1964, produced by the American Bandmasters Association
