This study documents the music teaching and learning that took place in the U.S. Navy band program at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station (GLNTS) near Chicago during World War I, led by Lieutenant John Philip Sousa. The following six research questions helped guide this investigation: How did Sousa organize the Navy band program? What were the details of teaching the enlisted bandsmen? What other music experiences were provided? How did the bandsmen’s work benefit the Navy and the US government? Which of the military band experiences likely influenced teaching and learning of instrumental music education after the war? What were the benefits for Sousa to volunteer near the end of his career? Findings revealed that more than three thousand bandsmen were taught by Sousa and Navy bandmasters. Bandsmen served in several ways: intact bands were sent to Navy ships to boost sailors’ morale; bands served the training regiments; bands toured the nation selling bonds; the GLNTS band program impacted the supply of band teachers after the war; and Sousa’s and the militaries’ educational and training strategies survive in today’s classrooms. The study concludes with a critique of the US government’s and Sousa’s role in commodifying the bandsmen.

约翰·菲利普·索萨 (John Philip Sousa) 在第一次世界大战期间担任音乐教育家和筹款人

这项研究记录了第一次世界大战期间在芝加哥附近的五大湖海军训练站 (GLNTS) 的美国海军乐队计划中进行的音乐教学和学习,由约翰·菲利普·索萨中尉领导。以下六个研究问题有助于指导这项调查:索萨是如何组织海军乐队计划的?教授入伍乐队成员的细节是什么?还提供了哪些其他音乐体验?乐队成员的工作如何使海军和美国政府受益?哪些军乐队经历可能影响了战后器乐教育的教学?索萨在职业生涯即将结束时做志愿者有什么好处?调查结果显示,苏萨和海军乐队指挥教授了三千多名乐队成员。乐队成员以多种方式服务:完好无损的乐队被送到海军舰艇上,以提高水手的士气;乐队为训练团服务;乐队在全国巡回销售债券;GLNTS 乐队计划在战后影响了乐队教师的供应;Sousa 和军队的教育和培训策略在今天的课堂上仍然存在。该研究以对美国政府和 Sousa 在将乐队成员商品化方面所扮演的角色的批评作为结论。
