  Music History by Jennifer Gipson
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.
With the expansion of music facilities, enhanced course offerings, and an impressive lineup of performances, it is a time for the Hurley School of Music to project its multifaceted mission into the future.

 Sullivan Discography: Sullivan's Incidental Music
Sullivan's incidental music to The Merry Wives of Windsor premiered one week short of three years later than Thespis, at the same theater, and commissioned by the same impressario, John Hollinshead.
All the music is new, but (and this is not necessarily for publication) if you remember a ballet called L'Ile enchantée which I wrote for the Italian Opera, Covent Garden, many years ago, you will recognize two of the themes.
Sullivan's last essay in the genre of incidental music was undoubtedly inspired by the success of his Macbeth music for Henry Irving seven years earlier.

 CRL - Music   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
CRL owns part one (of six), subtitled "Unpublished Music Manuscripts of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries from the Oxford Music School Collection." The collection contains original compositions for voice and instruments, including the repertoire of the weekly music meetings held in Oxford in the Commonwealth and early Restoration periods (16th and 17th centuries).
The part-books, ranging from 1660 to the mid-19th century (when printed music became predominant), are an important source for the works of these composers, and for tracing stylistic developments within the canon of English sacred music.
It was produced in cooperation with the Center for Studies in 19th Century Music at the University of Maryland.

 Composer Biography - Schubert, Franz   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The son of a schoolmaster, he showed an extraordinary childhood aptitude for music, studying the piano, violin, organ, singing and harmony and, while a chorister in the imperial court chapel, composition with Salieri (1808-13).
Frequently gathering for domestic evenings of Schubert's music (later called 'Schubertiads'), this group more than represented the new phenomenon of an educated, musically aware middle class: it gave him an appreciative audience and influential contacts (notably the Sonnleithners and the baritone J. Vogl), as well as the confidence, in 1818, to break with schoolteaching.
Much of the music is of high quality (especially in Alfonso und Estrella, Fierabras and the attractive Easter oratorio Lazarus, closely related to the operas), showing individuality of style in both accompanied recitative and orchestral colour if little sense of dramatic progress.
