 Music History by Jennifer Gipson
Prior to the first music classes of 1852, music for enjoyment, worship, or ceremony undoubtedly graced the campuses of Centenary College of Louisiana and its predecessors.
Finally, in 1923, “…Music, as a Department, was taken up in earnest and a very talented young lady, Miss Catherine McComb, undertook the task of putting over a real program for the year…”24 Miss McComb, the Director of Music, led a Glee Club for male students as well as a choral ensemble for women.
The music program’s mission remained the same, but on August 18, 1975, the Board of Trustees renamed it the Gladys F. Hurley School of Music in honor of its preeminent supporter.43 The Hurley School of Music continued to field numerous vocal and instrumental ensembles.

 Music of Mexico   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
Mexican music was popularized internationally in the late 1970s as part of a revival of mariachi[?] music in the United States; this was led by U.S. performers like Linda Ronstadt.
The earliest known appearance of mariachi in reference to music is from 1852.
It became known as the national music of Mexico after the Revolution of 1910[?], and was subsidized during the term of Lázaro Cárdenas[?] Cornets were added to mariachi in the 1920s; they were replaced by trumpets ten years later.

 Sleeve Notes - Schumann: Piano Music   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
Schumann's Op 13 is one of a number of his piano works - others include the Impromptus, Op 5, and Davidsbündlertänze, Op 6 - that exist in two distinct published versions, the first dating from the 1830s and the second a consequence of a process of revision undertaken in the early 1850s.
The 1852 version acknowledges that the work effectively belongs to the genre of theme and variations, each 'study' being a relatively strict variation on the sixteen-bar theme heard at the outset.
Schumann claimed that the sixteen-bar theme was composed by the Baron von Fricken, father of Ernestine, with whom Schumann had fallen in love during 1834 (the family lived in Asch, the musical translation of the letters of which name provided Schumann with the 'Sphinxes' which underpin the music of his Carnaval, Op 9).

 Civil War Band Music: The American Brass Band Movement, Notes
Moreover, few horns are entirely cylindrical or conical: all are conical at the bell, and all valved models require a cylindrical section where the valves are introduced into the main tubing.
The long established acceptability of the open-hole system for woodwinds may have given Sax the idea of recycling, if not saving, the keyed bugles and ophicleides--a species he helped endanger--by substituting for the brasswind mouthpiece a single reed, as is used on clarinets.

Chronicling the art of music in all its diversity - opera, spirituals, ragtime, jazz, musical comedy, orchestral, rock, and pop music - its vast collection illuminates an art form that is as diverse as humanity.
The sheet music illustrates a broad spectra of music genres, from the ragtime of Scott Joplin to the dixieland of W. Handy to the smooth ballads of Irving Berlin to the stirring patriotic anthems of John Phillips Sousa and George M. Cohan to the early roots of big band sounds.
The music also reflects the fabric of a society struggling to come to terms with an increasingly multi-cultural heritage, its role as an emerging world power, and its vulnerability to erratic economic and political forces.

 Newcastle City Hall organ
G&D’s organs at Glasgow City Hall (1852), Birmingham Music Hall (1856) and the Crystal Palace (1857) were much admired and in 1859 they completed a remarkable instrument for Leeds Town Hall to the designs of Henry Smart.
Perhaps it was these organs which swayed the Corporation’s minds for they placed an order with Gray and Davison in 1858 for an organ with 3 manuals and pedal which was opened in 1862 - it cost the councillors £3000.
From about 1970 onwards these recitals took place almost exclusively in St Thomas, and the City Council must have begun to wonder whether they had a rather expensive white elephant on their hands in the City Hall.
