Item Adjudicating Equity in Music Performance Assessments: A Literature Review(Sage, 2024-06-13) Kaufman, Brian; Kladder, Jonathan; Palmer, ElizabethMusic performance assessments (MPAs), also known as festivals, adjudications, or contests, are a yearly part of the music education experience for many teachers and students in school bands, orchestras, and choirs. A brief history outlining the origins and purposes of MPA is shared. Issues of equity in modern-day MPA are then explored, including the reliability and validity of adjudication instruments; adjudicator bias and evaluation forms; limitations of music lists and musical approaches allowed; and inequities related to gender, socioeconomic status, social class, and race. Challenges to classroom practice and teacher evaluation are discussed—including the potential disconnect between MPA and 21st century educational values. Implications for music teachers, music teacher educators, festival organizers, and music education association leaders are discussed.Item Open to Interpretation(UMBC Magazine, 2023-06-08) O'Grady, JennyItem Raaz: A Transdisciplinary Exploration at the Intersection of Bioart, HCI, and Community Engagement(Frontiers, 2022-03-17) Stamato, Lydia; Higgins, Erin; Prottoy, Hasan Mahmud; Asgarali-Hoffman, S. Nisa; Scheifele, Lisa; Dusman, Linda; deCarvalho, Tagide; Ascencao, Teresa; Hamidi, FoadLiving organisms and their biological properties, including the capacity for transformation and representation of information, offer exciting and inspiring opportunities for transdisciplinary art and design explorations. While an emerging body of work is increasingly investigating the possibilities at the intersection of interactive computing, biology, and art, more work is needed to investigate the potential of these approaches for supporting community and public engagement and participation in art, science, and technology. In this project, we describe a multimedia transdisciplinary bioart installation and hands-on agar art activity that we presented to members of the public in a community biology lab setting. Using short interviews, observations, and questionaries, we investigated attendees' reactions and impressions of the experience and found that the event generated transdisciplinary reflections, invited participants to bring their previous knowledge and experience to bear in engaging with different aspects of the work, and that the audience benefited from contextualization by artists.Item Building Technical Harp Skills Through Warm-Up Exercises(Sage, 2023-12-30) Pollauf, JacquelineItem Melanie Helene Bonis(I Resound Press) Bonis, Melanie Helene; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Danse Sacree.Item Elfrida Andree(I Resound Press) Andree, Elfrida; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Concert Ouverture in D.Item Rahilia Hasanova(I Resound Press) Hasanova, Rahilia; Dusman, LindaIncludes links to the scores: Monad: Sonata for Piano (1993); New Baroque Fugues and Postludes for Piano (2011).Item Caterina Calderoni(I Resound Press) Calderoni, Caterina; Dusman, LindaIncludes links to the scores: Murex (2010); Turbolenze del Blu (2014).Item Lili Boulanger(I Resound Press) Boulanger, Lili; Dusman, LindaIncludes links to the scores: Fauste et Helene; D'un Soir Triste; Psaume Du Fond De L'Abime.Item Francesca Caccini(I Resound Press) Caccini, Francesca; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Sinfonia and Aria: "La Liberazione".Item Teresa Carreno(I Resound Press) Carreno, Teresa; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Chamber Symphony for Strings.Item Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre(I Resound Press) de la Guerre, Elisabeth Jacquet; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Ulysses.Item Louise Farrenc(I Resound Press) Farrenc, Louise; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Nonet in E-flat Major, Op. 38.Item Madelena Lombardini Syrmen(I Resound Press) Syrmen, Madelena Lombardini; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Concerto V.Item Marianna Martines(I Resound Press) Martines, Marianna; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Sinfonia in C Major.Item Emilie Mayer(I Resound Press) Mayer, Emilie; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Faust-Ouverture.Item Maria Theresia von Paradis(I Resound Press) von Paradis, Maria Theresia; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Overture to Der Schulkandidat.Item Camilla de Rossi(I Resound Press) de Rossi, Camilla; Dusman, LindaIncludes links to the scores: Il Figliuol Prodigo; Il Sacrifizio Oratorio; Santa Beatrice D'Este; Seven SinfoniasItem Catherine Urner(I Resound Press) Urner, Catherine; Dusman, LindaIncludes links to the scores: Esquisses Normandes (orchestrated by Charles Koechlin) and Three Movements for Chamber Orchestra.Item Prinzessin Amalie Von Preussen(I Resound Press) Von Preussen, Prinzessin Amalie; Dusman, LindaIncludes link to the score: Vier Regimentsmarsche.
