| Abstract | This study examines selected music of the California missions and assesses the skills required to perform it. It further examines indigenous music of the region and assesses the skills likely possessed by the musicians who performed it. It then surveys the pedagogical methods and materials used by selected missionaries to train these indigenous musicians to perform mission music. Finally, it proposes that these methods form a model for music education that compares favorably with present-day standards. |
