Henry Ward Pearson The Illinois Conservatory ct Music, one of the most outstanding departments of MacMurray College, and associated with Illinois College, is under the direc- tion of Henry Ward Pearson. ( A.B., B.M., Director, Piano, Pi])e Organ, Theory. Potsdam State Normal School, Piano. I ' heoi v. New England Conservatory of Music, Piano, Theory. Private pupil of William H. Sherwooil, Chicago; Mac- Donald Smith, London; Marie Prentner and Leschetizkv, Vienna. Organ pupil of F. E. Hawthorne, Hemy B. Vincent, J. Warren Andrews, Clarence Eddy.) The Conservatory is one of the eight schools in Hlinois, which is a member of the National Association of Schools ot Music. This was founded in 1924, for the ] urpose of establisiiing more uniform standards for the granting of degrees and other credentials. To hecome a meird cr of liiis Association is an achieve- ment and indication of unusually high standing. There are two degrees offered in the Music De])artmenl. The Bachelor of Music degree may be obtained in piano, organ, violin, voice, or theory, under competent instructors. Due to the growing demand for good teachers in the field of public school music, a strong de])artment, iiuluding excellent instruc- tion in band and orchestral instruments has been institulcfl, olfering the degree of Bachelor of Music in Education. Stu lents gra luating from ibis department are well qualified to teach, as courses in {)ractice leaciiing in both the grade and high schools are required tbroughoul their careers as students. Recitals are imi ortant in the life of a music student. Junior and Senior recitals are presented by students of that ranking in their practical major. Weekly infornuil recitals give all students opportunity for experience in ap])ear- ing publicly. Besides these an Artists ' Series Course every year biings to the students from all over the world interesting and valuable concerts. r,i,;,ly-ll,r,;.
