This study was an investigation of the instructional strategies used by both Suzuki and non-Suzuki teachers when teaching private studio violin lessons. This study was conducted in two phases. In phase one, participants (N = 85) completed an online questionnaire detailing percentage of lesson time spent in a variety of teaching behaviors. In phase two, participants (N = 3) were observed teaching a studio violin lesson, after which the data were analyzed to determine the teaching behaviors used in the lesson. The data gleaned from both phases were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results indicated that Suzuki and non-Suzuki teachers exhibited similar amounts of many teaching behaviors, but some differences in the areas of parental involvement, assigned listening to recordings at home, and use of reading music, rote teaching, and playing from memory. Implications and future directions for research are discussed.

abstract: The use of instrumental vibrato in certain periods of classical music performances has become a highly debated and often fiery topic. The scholars of yesterday had only a few sources with which to gain a better understanding of the definition, mechanics, employment, and prevalent attitudes of those coming before them. This project aims to develop the foundation to a better understanding of instrumental vibrato by compiling primary source material written before 1940 and secondary source material relevant to that period into an annotated bibliography. The source materials in this study were mainly comprised of treatises, tutors, method books, newspaper articles, and dictionaries. The instruments covered in this study included the violin family and relatives (viols, etc...), woodwinds (including recorder), members of the brass family, organ, other keyboard instruments, guitar/banjo/lute, theremin, and prototype/niche instruments (such as player pianos). This project investigated 309 historical documents, finding 258 contained writings about instrumental vibrato. Of those, 157 were presented as bibliographic annotations. The author found no consensus at any time in the history of Western art music between 1550-1940 that vibrato is wholly acceptable or wholly unacceptable. / Dissertation/Thesis / D.M.A. Music 2012

Primeiramente será feita uma revisão dos formalismos mínimo e não-mínimo. Em seguida, será apresentada a construção do fantasma b passo a passo, inlcuindo correções quânticas. Por fim, serão estudadas em detalhes suas propriedades fundamentais, ue vão desde a nilpotência até a definição de um possível conjugado, o fantasma c / This thesis is based in part of my work during the Ph.D. and aims to present a detailed analysis of some newly studied properties of the composite non-minimal pure spinor b ghost. First, a review of the minimal and non-minimal pure spinor formalisms will be presented. Then, the construction of the non-minimal b ghost will be done step-by-step, including quantum corrections. Finally, some of its fundamental properties will be studied i detail, ranging from nilpotency until the definition of a possible canonical conjugate, the c ghost / FAPESP: 2009/17516-4
