FROtrI THE PRESIDENT'S DESKHucunnNFqRGUJo-\

n 1857, Thoreau wrotein his journal, "\\'hen Ihear music, I fear no

danger. I am inr-ulnerable.I see no foe. I am related

to the eadiest times, andto the latest". What a

beautiful expression of thepower that keeps us

involved in the teachingprofession through the

39 sometimes hectic springritual of examinations and recitals,although we are aI no doubt wishingwe had more time to reach our goals.S7hen we consider, though, why wedecided to become teachers, the love ofmusic we are sharing s'ith the nextgeneration makes the inevitable prob-lems seem much less daunting. Howfortunate we are to have our provincialassociations and our national one,CFMTA, through which \ve can shareproblems, derive inspiration, increaseour professional knou-ledge, andencourage our young musicians andcomposers.

It has been interesting to see howoften we are able to share mutualsolutions to such thornr- issues as

school credits, professionalism andteacher training. We notv have accredi-tation across the countn' tor ourstudents trying examination. There are

creative teacher traininggroups in several provincesand many workshopsessions often as part ofweekend provincialConventions; share someof these ideas with yourcolleagues in other parts ofthe country through ourmagazine. Each provincehas a unique approach, butthe seeds of new ideas

often come out of a single senterice.Much of what we have to share with

each other will be apparent in Winnipegthis July at our bienniai convenrion.With Jon Kimura Parker, HenrietteSchellenberg and David Stewart as a fewof the mentors who will be present,how can we fail to derive enrichmentand renewed energy through theirwords and music? We can enjoy theperformances of our young piano andstring students at the competitions - a

tribute to the excellent teaching at all,

levels. After all, these young people areonly the best of many others who arenot here! I hope many of you will makeplans to attend and meet your colieaguesand friends from across the country. Wewill also enjoy welcoming Gary Ingle,the Executive Secretary of the Music

music to become expendable is indanger of becoming expendable

itself'. \X/hat a resPonsibility that

expresses our role well vzhen she

says, "I would venntre to say that

we owe it to our students to set an

example of living creatively; ... togive them something special tocome away with and keep forever."

Ithough the 2001

CFNITA Conventionseems a long way off, our

B.C. Convention Chair CarolShinkewski has already completeda good deal of preliminary workto establish some of the framework of the event. It has been

many years since B.C. hosted a

national convention and we are alllooking forward to it.

The last week of February was

extremely busy for many of ourRichmond Branch members - theywere involved with the FifthAnnuai Pacific Piano Competi-tion. This year's adjudicatots forthe competition were Canzdranpianist Angela Cheng and theResident Conductor of theVancouver Svmphony, ClydeN{itchell.

Our Professional DevelopmentCommittee has added a number ofnew tapes to the Rental Library.The committee also gathers

information for a Calendar ofEvents which will be published ineach Provincial Newsletter.

The B.C. Provincial Associationhas revised and clarified its various\Iembership categories includingthe Student Teacher Auxiliary.The association has just disbursedrwo scholarships from its AwardsFund - a $500 scholarship toChristopher Wong for the highestmark in the A.R.C.T. Teacherexamination category, and $625 tothe B.C. Association of Perform-ing Arts Festivals.

Most of our branches orgamzeda number of exciting events duringthe 1998 Canada Music $TeekrM

aod are now busy preparing forthe spring music festivals.

Rostt,vN M,<nnl,

spring full oi sott rain and asummer filled s-ith blue skies toherald the CFIIT^\ Conr-ention inWinnipeg and gir-e us rime torejuvenate bodr- and spirit.

We wish to thank RhodaMurray for her v-ork as \Iembers-

^t-Large representatir-e. \\'e knou'

that she will continue ro supportARMTA and we wish her success

in her varied musical endear-ors.

The Three Hills Arts lcademvhas expanded in the areas oihandbells and musical theatre

thereby blending educadon and

performance activities. ^\ handbellclass for physicallv challensedyoung people began in Octoberand everyone is delighted s-ith the

students' progress. A musicaltheatre production of "Little'Women" was a wonderiul oppor-tunity for all ages to participate.George Gershwin was also iea-

tured in an awards concert in the

fall. This all added up to make a

very rewarding year!

The Calgary Branch is thrir-ingwith twenty-six committeeskeeping everything runningsmoothly. The Calgary ArtsSummer School Association has

become an exciting and rvell-

attended annual event each

August. The yeady Recital forScholarship Winners and Out-standing Students is held in

January. March is the month torCalgary's C3 Concerto Competi-tion. Monthly branch events

include workshops and

mastetclasses, recitals and, in rhe

near future, music educationtraveling workshops.

What a busy Lethbridge Branchl

The third season of the FamilyConcerto Association started witha program on "Mozaft, theEnigmatic Genius". flust a littleaside - I hope you have all read thefascinating book The MozartEffect by Don Campbell). Thesecond program titled "VictorianAmusements" reviews the atmos-phere of music making in the 19thcentury home. The third activityis "The Bach Family MakingMusic". These programs weresuccessfully organized by the hardworking and motivated Marill'nSinclair and Andrew Gieruiski.The branch also held a theoryworkshop, an Alfred Publicationsworkshop as well as a workshopand recital by Dr. Milton Schlosserentitled "a Coordinated Approachto Piano Technique". Congratula-tions to Joan Milton and herstudent Alexandria Close forwinning the 11 Years and UnderCanadran Music Writing Competi-tion. The new year started off witha student recital and a workshoppresented by the University ofLethbridge on "Art, Culture andThought in 17th and 18th CenturyFrance". Sounds fascinating to me!

In March, Lloyminster memberspresented a program around themusic and [fe of Mendelssohn - a

composer often ovedooked.Teachers have been busy with theMusic Festival, March 8 - 18. Maywill be an opportunity for a pre-exam recital and also the AnnualGeneral Meeting. Welcome to thethree new members!

Rita Barg is sti,ll in the hospital.

She is very active in the associa-

Committee a Christmas/FoodBank Recital u'here, in lieu of an

admission tee, people broughtfood items ior our local foodbank. This ,*-ent over so u'ell thatseveral truck loads rrere needed tocart the provisions av-av! The

Social Committee hosted a

Christmas part]' at the home ofour president, Cath)' Frecker, onDecember 28. A good time was

had by all. Our MentorshipCommittee promotes teachers

observing teachers andf or otherstudents observing iessons. TheRecital Committee sponsors three

recitals ^

ye r for any interested

students and many students take

advantage of these. During Canada

Music WeekrM, four participantsperformed original compositionsat our Canada Music \X'eekr\l

recital. These, as well as manY

other students who had auditioned

were taped and broadcast from ourlocal CBC radio studio.

The mandate of the PublicRelations Committee is to draw

attention to the activities of ourassociation by advertising throughposters, flyers, etc. The Scholar-

ship Committee sponsors a

scholarship recital to be held this

year on May 15. V-e har-e three

winners from three age groups

chosen to receive the scholarships.

For our Spring Recital on )Iar' 1,

our president suggested a "dress-

up" recital, i.e., performersdressing up in the character of the

piece thev perform. Cathv Freckeralso encouraged ensemble plar-ing

in the torm of duets. duos. trios,

etc. to be pertormed rn this recital.

Our association makes scholar-

ship donations to all our prorin-cial music festivals. Last r-ear s-e

donated $800.00. This rear it rvillbe more!

The suggestion has come up that

Newfoundland host the CF\ITANational Convention in the r-ear

2003. That year will coincide with"Festival 500" - a choral festival

held biennially. Informationregarding this will

^pper in the

next edition of our newsletter. \\-e

will be requesting input on this and

also volunteers in the event that

the majority of our members are

in favour of taking this project on.

Upcoming events include ourAGM on May 15, the da1' after the

annual scholarship recital. \\-econtinue to be an active and

involved organization.

The aoice of naturalistf broadcaster

Allan Foster will be faniliar to

man1 as a teller of stories and

legends ouer the Jlears on uarioas ofCBC radio's programs sach as 'Freslt

Air". Others will haae joined hint

on guided hikes at the CortrightConseruation Centre north ofToronto and in the cottage country

of Muskoka. Alwals we// researched

and infornatiue, his stories andtours are unfailingj humonroas

and wondtrflrlb entertaining for allages. Allan has an A.Mal (IVestern)

and is on/1 months awaS, ifromachieuing his doctorate in adultedacation at the Uniuersitl ofToronto. He sugests the loose

tongae-in-cheek translation of his

naulle as "Harmonious Keeper

of the Forest".

usic teachers might be

interested to learn how a

naturalist takes peoplefor walks in the forest and has

started to use music to engage

some of the participants and

enrich the experiencefor all of them. Thisis my story and itall started with a

school assignment. Iuse storytelling as an

approach to environ-mental educationwith children and

adults. This means

that I tell stories,

either fictional orotherwise to engage

my visitors in a

meaningful experience intheout- of-doors. A colleague

who knows more about the

theory of seven intelligencesthan I do suggested that a

storyteller is missing theboat with man\i of the

participants on a naturehike. The theory goes

ll{USIC,,..NATURALLY!By Allan Foster

Like this: there are 7 intelligences-Dr. Howard Gardner recognizedand specified the 7; linguistic,logicai-mathematical, spatial,musical, bodily-kinesthetic,interpersonal and intrapersonal.Although we all possess some ofeach, we have preferences and

show our preferences in the wa1

we iearn things. A nature sto$'-teller who just tells stories alongthe trail is only appealing to those

learners with linguistic intelli-gence. Those who learn throughlogical-mathematical or musicalintelligence were being left out. So

mv challenge \r/as to include them.So I developed a 'nature hike forthe 7 intelligences' rvhich includessomething for everl'one. Forexample: for the math people Ihave included a story whichrequires some logical thinking. Iuse the storr'/puzzle about thefarmet who must get across a river

in a leakr- boat. He rnus: i=-- =:across the rir-er a goose. , :. -=- - :a bag oi grain but can 'r,r-'' -: --one oi them at a time. T:- .-rr:.iul resolution of the sto:-. :::,:-:on some logical thinkins ':=::--.

*.e slon- game i::::man\- ot us rriliremember tiomsummer camp. Thestory used to be

called "Going on a lion hunt." butto make it more reler.ant to theOntario woods experience I'vechanged it to "Let's go find some

groundhogs." It's a story activitywhere evervone produces thesound effects bv slapping theirthighs and clapping their hands

mixed with a bit of choral speak-ing. The second rhythm activity is

^ g me that evolved around the

campfire. The leader walks aroundthe inside of the circle of partici-pants and directs them to make

the sounds of rubbing their hands

together, snapping their fingers,clapping, slapping their thighs and

stamping their feet. The resultantsound resembles a thunderstormcomplete with crescendo and

decrescendo. When we have theluxury of a group that can stay a

litde longer v/e sometimes play the

bird chorus game. Everyone in the

Soup is given a card that defines

him/her as a type of bird, suggests

in words what the bird says and

specifies the hours when the birdsays it. The leader pretends to be a

clock and calls out the hours ofthe day. The hoots, tweets and

snickers result in a noisr game butthe participants often spend the

rest of their hike listening tor theirparticular bird. And frnalh' thereare musical instruments to make.

A dandelion stem becomes a t-lute

with a range of three difttrentnotes. There are two grass whis-tles: the Canadian r-arien' rvith theblade of grass stretched r-erticallybetween thumbs and palms and

the Japanese varien' s-ith the blade

of grass folded into a horizontalreed and placed against the lips.

With a bit of practice \-ou can

produce a good screech br- biorv-ing sharply across the inr-ertedhead of an acorn. So. har-e I metthe challenge? V'e11, I'm setungthere. I've been taking people forwalks in the forest tbr 28 \-ears.

W'hen I started, I thought thatpeople were learning thin-qs simplvbv listening to me. Thev don't. Inorv knou' that I har-e lo oror-ideopportunities tor tl-ren: ic, .earn intheir os-n prettrred \\-a] - ::singtheir orvn inteiligence. I thunk I'ma better teacher norr and. er-en

UPDATE FROilI THE CAilIBODIAN SUPPORT CROUP

At:-rz.furnp,x

omentous Arts news

from Cambodia! A new.* ' National Orchestra is

developing. This move is espe-

cially significant because the brutalKhmer Rouge attacked culture so

viciously. They slaughteredmusicians, artists, teachers and

performers by the thousands;burned all the books in theNational Library and made it a

pig-st1l; destroyed irreplaceableancient records of Cambodianheritage; and wrecked countlessinstruments and cultural artifacts.

During my last trip to Cambo-dia I gave two recitals to raise

funds for the National Orchestra,and took part in the first orgztiza-tional meeting on February 13,representing the CambodiaSupport Group (CSG). The debutperformance is set for October 31.,

Kirg Sihanouk's birthday.UNESCO-UN Volunteer Fred

Frumberg summarized the projectas follows: 'lVe plan to form a

National Orchestra, comprisingboth Traditional and Western-Classical musicians, as an ambassa-

dor for Cambodian culture and a

Name (as it should appear on tax receipt)

source of national pride.Before the Pol Pot (Khmer

Rouge) regime, Cambodia \ras a

regional leader in classical andtraditional music. Since 1980, thestudy of music has been slos-lvrebuilding; now the time is ripe torecapture past achievements whilebreaking new ground.

Traditional and western-classicalmusic are given equal focus in theRoyal University of Fine Arrs,Faculty of Music. This retlectstheir equal significance in Cambo-dian life. The National orchestrawill be distinctly Cambodian,with newly-commissioned u-orksby Cambodian composers, andwill include Chnar-ee music -

integrating traditional and \\-esrerninstruments.

As western culture infiltratesCambodia at afi extreme rate,musicians strive for excellence in a

society easily influenced byadventure films and N[TV. TheNational Orchestra u,ill benefrtnot only the artistic communin-but also the generai public,fostering a sense of nationaldignity and co-operarive spirit."

After expenses, US$1,400.[tr-r ';':.raised from the two recitals. \I:c:.oi the promotional costs u'erecovered bv the Canadian Embas=-in Cambodia. Ambassador D.Gordon Longmuir is a strongsupporter of CSG work there.

I also handed over USg1,00[rfrom past CSG fund-raising formusic projects. Of this, 9300.0tt :s

for the building of traditionalinstruments, and $700 for theorchestra itself (this to includecosts of adapting and amplifrin-s :'

traditional instrument, the 'ksardierr', tbr solo use in a new u-orkcommissioned for the orchestra.

The total budget for the firstperformance is projected at arouniUS$8,000.00. Canadians havegenerated more than a quarter ofthe actual seed-money that enables

the Cambodian people to moveahead with this plan; and CSGfund-raising continues.

The Cambodian NationalOrchestra rises as a major triumphover those who practised culturalgenocide. We in the West can feelhonoured indeed to be so vital a

part of this historic culturaldevelopment.

very patient rn-rng to teach me e-

mail. I iust s'asn'r getting it - nvoclicks into Shortcut to Pianet. Iwas doing "click-click", nothingwas happening. Ross u-as shaking

his head, and then in a moment ofinspiration said, "IIother, thinktwo 32nd notes instead of nr-o 8th

notes". In musical terms, it s-as a

cinch.That would never har-e hap-

pened to Anne - she is muchquicker. It gives me great pleasureon this occasion to tell r-ou a Litde

bit about my friend and colleague,

Anne Burows - Anne the intellec-tual, Anne the musician, Anne the

music teacher, Anne the philan-thropist humanitarian. -\nne thepef son.

Anne Burrou's is an -\ssociate ofthe Royal College, England. She

received a }laster oi \fusic fromIndiana Unir-ersin-, Bloomington,and an Honoran- Doctor oi Lau's

from the Unir-ersitl of i.lberta,Edmonton. She is an Honorar\-Life N{ember of the AlbertaRegistered Nfusic Teachers'Association and Canadian Federa-

tion of Music Teachers' Associa-

tions. She has served as presidentof ARIITA Edmonton Branch.

She was instrumental in estab-lishing the Northern AlbertaConcerto Competition withARMTA Edmonton Branch andthe Edmonton Youth Orchestra.A number of years ago, in 1979 tobe exact, Anne saw a need forestablishing a foundation fortalented young performers to goaway for further studv at the postsecondary level, mant' frombackgrounds that could notpossibly fund a Julliard, Curtis orIIcGill education. Anne vervquickly pulled a board together,had the foundation incorporatedwith a charitable number and theAngela Cheng Foundation wasborn, Angela Cheng being thevoung student loaded withpotential. Anne is amazing. Ofcoufse she does not rr,-ork alone,but has a knack for putting the

right people together ro get thingsdone. The name has since changedto the Anne Burrorvs Foundation.

Anne is an avid reader, not just

of literature, but of magazines,

periodicals and ne\\'spapers. She

keeps up on the latesr neu's in allforms of politics, especialh- s-henit has to do with the culturalcommunity. If rou \\-anr to knou'which works are iashionable forconcert programs, ask Anne. She

has been pardv responsible forbringing manv artists to -\lbertasuch as musicologist and pianistCharles Rosen, and u-as tlrst inline to have him sign her copr- ofhis book The Classica/ Sh/e. Shethinks nothing of picking up thephone and booking pianistKendall Tar-lor or phoningBloomington Indiana to bookMenahem Pressler or harpsichord-ist Igor Kipnis. She is the author ofan internationallv accredited book

called Music Throagh Braille,having been assisted by herAmerican colleague BettyeKrolick. It is a landmark book as itis the first comprehensive guide inthe historr- of braille music studies.

Anne has a phenomenalmemory. You can quote a phonenumber to her and she v"illremember it. Upon driving herhome one day, she asked, "'Whydid you come that way - were youlost?" I replied that no, I had justdecided to come a different route.

Anne is an avid theatre andconcert goer. Ever since I was a

)roung student going to my firstconcefts at the S(/omen's MusicalClub and Edmonton Symphony, Ican remember seeing this lovelyred head dressed in silks andvelvets and wondered at the timewho she was. I soon learned it was

Anne Burrows the music teacherwho, along with friend and

colleague Robert Pounder startedthe Roubakine Club for a group of20 teachers to keep up theirpractice bv performing nvice a

vear for the late Boris Roubakineu.ho would hear them play andgive a constructive critique.Although Anne has retired fromthe group, they are still bringing innotables such as Marek Jablonski,Jean Paul Sevilla and AntonKuerti.

At the 1987 spring convocationof the Universitv of Alberta, adegree of Doctor of Laws was

conferred upon Anne. That same

year she received the YV/CATribute to Women Award forArts and Culture. She is a memberof the Order of Canada, and has

been awarded the GovernorGeneral's Medallion in recognitionof significant contribution tocompatriots, community and toCanada. In 1993 she was inducted

into the Edmonton Cultural Hallof Fame for outstanding achier-e-

ment in the Arts and \Iusic. This

spring she u'as inr-ited to sen-e as a

member of the \adonal Forumon CLimate Change. a branch ofthe \arional Round Table on

Enr-ironment and Economy.

-\nne is still teaching music and

especiallv delights in her younger.rudents. Thet' always become fast

nends and she feels that she

receives daily lessons from herstudents. She has been a mentor tomanv young university studentsand performers. Anne, the person,has a warm and loving positivepersonalin with a gre t sense ofhumour, and collects friends as

others collect postage stamps. She

loves dining out, radio, televisionand traveling. No matter whereshe goes in the world, u'ithinminutes she vu'ill har-e rounded up

a group of people to go to dinnerand an event.

Anne Burrows is a wonderfulexample to us all, giving of hertalents, love, wisdom andinspiration.

Mr. Chairman, I have thehonor of presenting to you forthe Diploma of Licentiate inMusic, honoris causa, Dr. AnneBurrows.
