We Congratulate Wayne B. Barlow on his 39th Birthday Today Wayne B. Barlow of 95 Elmcroft Rd., won' t have much time to celebrate his 39th birthday today. He will be hard at work on his first book, a college text for music appreciation. It's title will be "Foundations of Music." Barlow walked into Eastman School of Music when he was 10 years old and took his first music lesson. He has studied there ever since. Following years of piano, violin and organ lessons, Barlow received bachelor's and master's degrees in music from Eastman School. Then followed a doctorate of philosophy in composition, the first such degree to be awarded in this country. In addition to his work on his textbook, Barlow is kept busy in his position as executive secretary of Eastman School's graduate department. In addition to administration work, he teaches graduate courses in music acoustics, composition, and orchestration. Dr. Barlow also instructs in University Extension School and is organist and director of music of St. Thomas Episcopal Church. In his spare time, he builds electronic equipment and takes color photographs. His interest & skills in electronic devices led him to develop and electronic tuner now being used by the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra and several high fidelity record players used by the Eastman School. Barlow considers his major work the "Mass in G" performed this year by the Eastman Senior Symphony under his direction. |
He said last night that a selection he wrote in 1937, "The Winters Passed," a rhapsody of Appalachian folk songs for oboe and strings, was included on a recent television drama. He explains he missed hearing the music himself, but several of his friends called his attention to it. Mr. Barlow and his wife, Helen, have two children, Robert, 11, and Joan, 8. Their son plays the concert harp, and their daughter, the piano. Mrs. Barlow is a graduate of Oberlin, and later received a master's degree from the University of Southern California.
