Item The Administration of Music Programs in Canadian Schools(Canadian Music Educators Association, 1993-05) Bartel, Lee R. ; Shand, Patricia MartinShand and Bartel describe a major research project undertaken by the Canadian Music Education Research Centre at the University of Toronto: “an investigation of the administration of music programs in Canadian elementary and secondary schools in 1989-1990.” Shand and Bartel designed a six-question survey-questionnaire, which they distributed to a random sample of 192 school boards across Canada (beginning in February 1990). They received 175 responses by January 1991. They present here a detailed statistical analysis of the responses they received to each of the six questions. Conclusions include the discovery of a high level of teacher motivation among those teachers below high school; moderate board support (as evidenced by the priority given to hiring music teachers); a lack of administrative support; a lack of budgetary support; an indication that adequate administrative support may demand the presence of a specialized music or fine arts administrator – currently unavailable in many boards and giving rise to “a desperate shortage of support”. The results open up several areas of further research interest, and the need for a second survey, the results of which are presented in the Canadian Music Educator Vol. 35 No. 7.Item The Administration of Music Programs in Canadian Schools: A Research Update(Canadian Music Educators Association, 1994) Bartel, Lee R. ; Shand, Patricia MartinItem And the band played on…(Canadian Music Educators Association, 2005) Bartel, LeeItem Another Way to Justify Music Education?

Carré, the Critics, and Le Cygne at the Opéra-Comique(University of California Press, 2021) Gutsche-Miller, SarahWhen Albert Carré became the director of the Paris Opéra-Comique in 1898, he did so with the goal of rejuvenating French lyric theater. He also took possession of a national institution in a state of flux. The Opéra-Comique had a new hall and a new mandate, and it had recently become the focus of debates in the press about what role the city’s second national lyric theater should play in French culture. Although debates initially revolved around opera, Carré’s plans for renewal included ballet, not seen at the Opéra-Comique for over a century. This article discusses the role ballet played in promoting Carré’s artistic objectives. At first glance the theater’s repertoire appears to be at odds with Carré’s progressive ideals. The Opéra-Comique staged only one innovative ballet, Le Cygne (1899)—a pop-culture-inflected mythological parody by Catulle Mendès, Charles Lecocq, and Madame Mariquita. Carré then turned to staging old-fashioned pantomime-ballets, confining innovative dances to divertissements in operas. The reasons for Carré’s repertoire decisions can, I argue, be found in the reception of Le Cygne. Carré’s initial ballet was highly contested, and critics’ arguments mirrored ongoing press debates about ballet’s value and place in French culture. I contend that Carré’s initial modernist ballet, and his shift to mixing conventional pantomime-ballets with modern opera divertissements in response to the contentious reception of Le Cygne, were part of a calculated attempt to establish the Opéra-Comique as an emblematic French national theater that was simultaneously a museum and a progressive space for modern innovation.Item Becoming an Inquiring Teacher(Canadian Music Educators Association, 1996) Bartel, Lee R.Item Bees, Beets and Brethren: The Development of a Research Mind-Set(Memorial University of Newfoundland Press, 1994) Bartel, Lee R.Item Canada in Song(Canadian Music Educators Assocaition, 2006) Shand, PatriciaItem Canadian Band Repertoire(Canadian Music Educators Assocaition, 2005) Shand, PatriciaItem Canadian Choral Music Partnerships(Canadian Music Educators Assocaition, 2004) Shand, PatriciaItem Canadian content in elementary and secondary school music curricula(Canadian Music Educators Assocaition, 1999) Bartel, Lee R. ; Dolloff, Lori-Anne ; Shand, Patricia MartinItem Canadian Content in Music Curriculum: Policy and Practice(Cape Breton Press, 1998) Bartel, Lee R. ; Shand, Patricia MartinItem Canadian content in school music curricula: a research update(Canadian Music Educators Assocaition, 1999) Bartel, Lee R. ; Dolloff, Lori-Anne ; Shand, Patricia MartinItem Canadian Music Column: ComPoster Project.(Canadian Music Educators Assocaition, 1992) Shand, PatriciaItem The Canadian Music Educators' Association...So What!(Canadian Music Educators Association, 2001) Bartel, Lee ; Willingham, LeeItem Canadian Music In Education: CMEA Composition Competition for Student Composers Writing for Student Performers(Canadian Music Educators Assocaition, 2000) Shand, PatriciaItem Canadian Music In Education: Suggestions for Teachers Wanting to Commission a Composer to Write for Student Performers(Canadian Music Educators Assocaition, 1999) Shand, PatriciaItem Canadian Music in the Canadian Music Educator(Canadian Music Educators Assocaition, 2000) Shand, Patricia MartinItem Canadian Music in the Canadian Music Educator: An update(Canadian Music Educators Association, 2007) Shand, PatriciaItem “Canadian Music: The World’s Music in Microcosm(Ontario Music Educator's Association, 1989) Shand, Patricia
