DEDICATION Wc, the Senior Class of 1962, in deepest respect and admiration, do dedicate this 1962 Quadrangle to Warren Martin. Through Mr. Martin’s inspiration, we, as students, personalities, and musicians, have grown to new heights. Whether in contact with him directly or indirectly, we have all been influenced by his unending dedication to the cause of good music. To him we owe much! Mr. Martin’s professional and musical activities have been many and varied, so much so that it is almost literally impossible to present a complete list of such ex¬ periences. He attended Westminster Choir College between 1932 and 1938 during which time he served positions in two churches: Organist at First Presbyterian Church of Trenton, New Jersey from 1933 to 1936 and 1937 to 1938; and Organist- Director at Plymouth Congregational Church in New Haven, Connecticut from 1936 to 1937. After receiving his Master of Music degree in 1938, he became the Organist at the First Congregational Church in Los Angeles, California where he remained until 1941. Following a tour of duty with Uncle Sam’s army, he returned to his previous Los Angeles church in the position of Director of Music from 1946 to 1948. From there he travelled back east a few miles to be Director of Music at the Rockefeller Memorial Chapel at the University of Chicago from 1948 to 1949. In 1950 Westminster Choir College welcomed Mr. Martin back, but this time as a teacher. He has taught conducting, theory, composition, and vocal repertoire. Since 1952 he has been the Head of the Graduate Department; and since 1958, the Musical Director of the College. It might be interesting to note that Mr. Martin has studied with such well-known personalities as: Roy Harris — composition; Carl Weinrich — organ; Paul Boepple — musicology; David Hugh Jones — organ and composition; and John Finley Williamson — conducting. We, the members of the graduating class of 1962, have had the opportunity to be acquainted with Mr. Martin through Symphonic Choir, through his course in vocal repertoire given in our Junior year, and, some of us have known him, through Westminster Choir. This College is indeed privileged to have this great man, musician, teacher, intel¬ lect, and friend as one of its most distinguished administrators. All of us owe to him, Mr. Martin, a great deal for his devotion to music and to this school. He has helped us realize the answer to the question posed at Commencement exercises each year in his “Anthem of Dedication”: “Whom shall we send? . . . Here am I, Lord, send me.” It is with great honor that this yearbook be dedicated to Mr. Warren Martin. 5
