This collection consists of articles, papers, keynote and other major speeches, reviews, and responses, mostly related to music education, but some to arts education and arts business, in some cases with reference to emerging countries. A number of these items appeared in difficult-to-access publications such as foreign journals and foreign and domestic proceedings. A few are translations of English-language articles that appeared in foreign language journals, and a few others are in English with accompanying foreign language abstracts.

Many countries are in the process of modernizing, which means, among other things, that their population growth is slowing while education, health care, transportation, and communication are improving. The results of modernization are political, economic, social, and technological. Results of modernization and implications for music, education, and music education include:
1. Increasing political egalitarianism implies less censorship of music, education, and music
education.
2. Increasing wealth should lead to more access to music instruction and technology.
3. More formal education will provide more opportunities for music education for children and
university students.
4. Smaller families could lead to more reliance on institutions for music instruction.
5. Increasing social problems, including weaker community ties, may lead to more reliance on
institutions for music instruction and less interest in folk music.
6. Greater separation of church and state will result in less teaching of religious music.
7. Technological innovations will lead to more and different electronic teaching of music.
8. More multitasking will require the teaching of music technology.
9. Increasing multiculturalism will require ongoing examinations of which music to teach.
10. Advancing popular culture will result in more popular music being taught.
More egalitarian societies may also require more practice-oriented and less intellectual approaches to music. Professional practice in modernizing countries will tend more toward inclusion and less toward exclusion.
تخضع العديد من البلدان لعملية تحديث، وهذا يعني من زوايا أخرى، أن النمو السكاني ضعيف في حين أن التعليم والرعاية الصحية والنق والاتصالات في تقدم. نتائج التطوير منها سياسية،اقتصادية، اجتماعية، وتكنولوجية. تشمل نتائج التطوير والآثار المترتبة على الموسيقى، والتعليم، والتربية الموسيقية: (1) زيادة المساواة السياسية تؤدي إلى تخفيف الرقابة على الموسيقى، والتعليم، والتربية الموسيقية، (2) ارتفاع مستوى المعيشة يؤدي إلى خلق فرص الحصول على تعلم الموسيقى والتكنولوجيا (3) التعليم الرسمي سيوفر المزيد من الفرص لتدريس الموسيقى للأطفال وطلاب الجامعات، (4) إمكانية الاعتماد على معاهد تعليم الموسيقى من قبل الأسر الصغيرة (5) زيادة المشاكل الاجتماعية، بما في ذلك المجمعات الضعيفة، قد يؤدي إلى مزيد من الاعتماد على معاهد تعليم الموسيقى وقلة الاهتمام في تعلم الموسيقى الشعبية. (6) الفصل بين الكنيسة والدولة يؤدي إلى قلة تدريس الموسيقى الدينية. (7) الابتكارات التكنولوجية ستؤدي إلى زيادة تعلم الموسيقى الالكترونية. 8) تعدد المهام تتطلب المزيد من تدريس الموسيقى التكنولوجية. (9) زيادة التعددية الثقافية يتطلب الامتحانات الجارية منها لتعليم الموسيقى، و(10) تقدم الثقافة الشعبية سيؤدي إلى زيادة الطلب على دراستها. أكثر المجتمعات التي يوجد فيها مساواة تتطلب إلى مزيد من التدريب العملي للموسيقى على حساب النهج الفكري. الممارسة المهنية في البلدان المتطورة تميل أكثر نحو الشمولية وتستبعد الإقصاء.
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of school enrollment, distance to audition site, sex of auditionees, and instrument type on the results of the 1992-97 South Dakota all-state band auditions. Results include the following:
1. Total audition scores were better for students from larger schools and for those who traveled a shorter distance to the audition.
2. Female students' scores were significantly better than those of male students, but there was no significant difference in the percentages of successful auditions between males and females.
3. Scores differed significantly between instrument groups, with flutes and double reeds receiving the best scores, followed by saxophones, trumpets and French horns, low brass and string basses, and clarinets.
4. The variables of distance to audition site, instrument group, and sex accounted for 11% of the variance in total audition scores.
