The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine: (1) adult amateur musicians' reasons and motivations for participating in an ensemble in adult life, and (2) adult amateur musicians' perceptions about the relationship between his/her participation in secondary instrumental ensembles and participation in an instrumental ensemble in adult life. Participants (n=9), ages 24-64, were current members of three separate community wind bands from the Midwestern United States and were previously enrolled in a secondary instrumental music ensemble. Each participant completed a semi-structured interview that was audio recorded by the researcher. Interviews were transcribed and coded for themes and categories. The themes that emerged included: (1) break in music making; (2) word of mouth; (3) early musical development; (4) enjoy music making; (5) skills gained from secondary ensembles; (6) different ages and backgrounds; (7) similarities and differences between secondary and community ensembles; (8) social environment; and (9) changes to secondary music education. These themes were used to inform the research questions. Implications for secondary music education and community ensembles are included. 2015-04-20 English text Bowling Green State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu1428414176 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu1428414176 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
