| Description: |
A study of music in the English public school, the destructive impact of the Reformation and the Commonwealth on music in such schools, the individual achievements of some teachers in advancing music education and the outstanding contribution to public school music of Oundle School. |
| Synopsis: |
The public schools of England are not supported out of public funds but organised privately outside the State educational system. Originally they shared certain features including concentration on the classics, training in leadership, and a prefect system. But music was long absent from the curriculum until efforts to restore it were begun in the mid-nineteenth century.In this new study the achievements of individual teachers in particular schools to redevelop music there are described. The author has assembled first-hand accounts of the state of music in leading schools during the critical period of its growth. |
