Series 2: Illinois String Research Project Films, c. 1964-1970

The Paul Rolland Papers include 306 rolls of 16mm film, 3 1-inch video cassettes, and 13 reel-to-reel audio tapes produced and collected by Paul Rolland and his Illinois String Research Project as part of the development of "The Teaching of Action in String Playing," a set of pedagogical motion pictures. The materials are arranged first by format and then sequentially by number. Some of the films are housed in multiple cans and these have been assigned letters. The can sizes are included in each item description. The arrangement of the 16mm films is based on Michael Fanelli's dissertation, Paul Rolland: His Teaching Career and Contributions to String Pedagogy and Education, (University of Illinois, 2001). The film item numbers correspond to Fanelli's original inventory, and the following films were missing when this portion of the collection was processed in 2009 (film items 21, 23, 53, 56-59, 138, 157, 171-176, and 188).
