MHL 564 History of Music Instruments Student Papers, Fall, 2000

The papers found in this section are placed here for the benefit of the entire class to have reference to the work of every student. They are unedited by me nor have I spent extensive time formatting them in HTML. Rather I have simply converted them via Office 98 MSWord HTML conversion in order to expedite them for use by the class. Therefore, there may be format MANY inconsistancies and other problems that were not reflected or found in the original manuscript. Those of you who used footnotes, most have been lost in conversion - sorry about that. To each of you, I apologize for any errors I contributed while placing the papers on the web, but I in turn hope that you will all benefit by reading your colleague's work.

NOTE: These term papers should be considered as copyrighted by the student authors.

You are asked NOT to copy, quote, or download any portion of these works.

Enjoy!
