Book excerpt: Excerpt from Zeckwer-Hahn, Philadelphia Musical Academy, 1617 Spruce Street, Philadelphia: Season 1931-1932 The present arrangement of the School curriculum is a decided step in advance. While the methods and courses remain substantially the same, the school has been divided into three Departments, namely, Preparatory, Conservatory and Graduate, the description of which will be found in the following pages. Musical education has undergone many radical changes in the last half century, and great improvements in methods of presentation have taken place. When new methods have been thor oughly tested and found advantageous, they have been adopted as part of the School curriculum, but only after thorough investigation. The School offers courses in musical education, including all branches usually undertaken by musicians and interested amateurs. For the professional, there are courses which lead to Degrees of Bachelor and Master of Music, which conform to the requirements laid down by the most advanced Schools of Music in the country. Courses are also provided for children, and those desiring to study music as an avocation. Branch Schools are maintained in various parts of the city, especially for children and those who reside in the neighborhood. The Collegiate Courses, however, are given only at the main School, 1617 Spruce Street, and at the University of Pennsylvania. Pupils may enter at any time during the School year and credits are arranged to date from period of entry. It is advisable, however, to start at the commencement of the first term, and register in the regular classes. This saves both time and expense, and simplifies the matter of examinations and credits. Evening classes in Harmony, Aural Theory and History of Music are held for those unable to take the regular day courses. Students in these evening classes are eligible to honors only if they take their final examinations with the day classes.
