C. Woodbridge introduced the context of School Music Education that had been practiced in countries like Germany and Switzerland and proposed that School Music Education should also be implemented in the United States. Based on the information shared by Woodbridge, L. Mason released publications such as the Singing Book and Manual for Instruction in the Elements of Vocal Music, thereby launching instructions of vocal music to children in church choir groups and at private schools. In 1833, the Boston Academy of Music was founded by people who were interested in School Music Education and Church Music, marking the beginning of organizational research and educational activities of instruction in vocal music. The Boston Academy of Music, in 1836, filed a memorial to the Boston School Committee requesting the study and consideration of School Music Education. In February 1837, the Boston School Committee set up a subcommittee to investigate the subject of introducing vocal music instruction into the public schools and commissioned T. Kemper Davis, S. K. Lothrop and J. Field to report on the results of the investigation. Upon the submission of the Davis Report by this subcommittee, careful discussion took place based on the report and a decision was reached to perform the experiment at four public schools. However, the Boston City Council did not approve the appropriation for the experiment, so Mason conducted the experimental education and revealed its achievements without compensation. As a result, the School Music Education in the U.S. was authorized for the first time in Boston public schools in August 28, 1838. The present paper deliberated on the influence that the Davis Report had through a study of materials such as the Records of School Committee of Boston, the Minutes of a Meeting of the Board of Aldermen and newspaper articles. As a consequence, it clarified that the Davis Report not only rationally persuaded the raison d’etre of vocal music instruction in schools, but also spurred the momentum to concretely demonstrate the importance and practicability of vocal music instruction.}, pages = {72--81}, title = {デーヴィス報告書(1837)がボストン市議会や社会に及ぼした影響 : ヘイルの反対意見からホウズ学校での唱歌の実験教育に至る経緯を中心に}, volume = {29}, year = {2014}, yomi = {ナガシマ, マコト} }
