Sarah Glover: A Forgotten Pioneer in Music Education.

Bennett, Peggy D.

Journal of Research in Music Education, v32 n1 p49-65 Spr 1984

The English tonic sol-fa system was developed in the 1930s by Sarah Glover. The system was discovered in 1841 by John Curwen, who subsequently popularized and adapted it. Conflict arose between the two educators regarding the modifications Curwen made in the system. Glover deserves recognition for her contribution. (Author/RM)
