How did Saburo Mori Encounter Rose Fyleman
No full textSaburo Mori (1911-93) is described as born in Kariya-machi, Hekikai-gun [today’s Kariya], Aichi, in 1911, and at the age of 20, his story “Akana Soemon Kyodai” [Akana Soemon Brothers] was accepted in juvenile monthly magazine Akai Tori by Miekichi Suzuki (1882-1936), before being employed at the Akai Tori company in Tokyo, as an editor-writer, in 1932 (Sakai, 1995). Kamiya (2014) revealed that his early stories of “Akai Post” [Red Post] and “Komori-gasa” [Umbrella] in 1931 and “Tsumuji-kaze” [Whirlwind] in 1936 were the retold of the work of English children’s author Rose Fyleman (1877-1957). This paper is to discover how Saburo Mori encountered the fairy stories of Rose Fyleman. After pure speculation that Sabro’s elderly brother Senzo Mori (1895-1985) might have acted as a mediator as in “Akana Soemon Kyodai” retold from Lafcadio Hearn’s "Of a Promise Kept" (Sakai, 1995) in A Japanese Miscellany (1901), the author finds a small footnote of “a drama by Fyleman” in the katakana syllabary at the end of “Gin-no uwagi” [Silver coat] by Miekichi Suzuki in 1926 March issue. The linkage of Saburo Mori and Rose Fyleman through Miekichi Suzuki is discussed, and how Fyleman's works have been accepted in Japan for a century is revealed.departmental bulletin pape

Saburo Sumi's Life and Influence on Violin Music
No full textabstract: The life and pedagogy of Saburo Sumi (1902-1984) has had a major influence on the violin world, particularly in Japan.

His non-traditional musical background had a profound effect on the teacher he became and contributed to his tremendous success as a pedagogue. Since most of the existing information on Sumi is written in Japanese, this study is designed to acquaint the Western reader with this amazing pedagogue. The information for this study was gathered through books, articles, and documents related to his life as well as the writer's personal experiences with the Sumi family.Dissertation/ThesisD.M.A. Music 201
