dc.description.abstractThis thesis provides a glimpse into the life of one of the foremost musicians of the 20th century -- renowned performer and pedagogue, Alice Chalifoux. In order to gain insight into her life, the discussion begins by exploring a brief history of the harp, as well as a review of Miss Chalifoux's mentor and colleague, Carlos Salzedo. Miss Chalifoux is the representative of the Salzedo harp method and, many believe, his most outstanding student. Some argue that she actually surpasses her teacher both as performer and pedagogue. This project is focused primarily on Miss Chalifoux's public life as the former principal harpist of the Cleveland Orchestra (1931-1974), as well as her career as a teacher at the Cleveland Institute of Music, Oberlin-College Conservatory, Baldwin-Wallace College, and the University of Maryland, and her directorship of the Salzedo Summer Harp Colony of Camden, Maine.en_US
