Excerpt from Lowell Mason: An Appreciation of His Life and Work
One more medium for teacher-training, sponsored and developed by Mason, was the Musical Normal Institute, organized in New York City in 1853. Its sessions lasted throughout three months and its curriculum included musical theory, composition, instrumental and vocal training, and choral practice. In this movement Mason was joined by Thomas Hastings, George F. Root and William B. Bradbury, the latter two having been pupils of his, while students from all parts of the country attended. Thus, Mason's Teachers' Classes, Musical Conventions and Musical Normal Institutes provided the country for a quarter of a century with a majority of its well-trained music teachers.
