Born on December 22, 1906, as Jean Slater, she grew to be equally interested in science and music. This passion led her to pursue both topics in higher education. Jean Slater began her education by obtaining a liberal arts degree from Vassar College, a Bachelor of Music with a minor in both science and math. From there, she pursued a Master of Arts of Music at Columbia University, where she also studied physics and earned a music fellowship abroad in Vienna, Austria. Jean Slater became Associate Professor of Music at Mary Washington College in 1947. After her first thirteen years of teaching there, she was additionally hired as a part-time professor of physics. Later, she would evenly split her time between her organ studio and physics labs at MWC. During her time at MWC, she married Andrew W. Edson and garnered the name that she would be known by today and in history: Jean Slater Edson. Likewise, some accounts and records of her refer to her as \"Mrs. Andrew W. Edson,\" denoting her status as married. Despite teaching at MWC, Edson was also an active member of the American Guild of Organists, which she held an Associate Degree and a Choir Master degree within. She retired from teaching at MWC in 1972 and died due to declining health on September 19, 1985.","In addition to her research for physics, Edson also researched music and wrote composition pieces of a large variety. Her most well-known non-composition work is her book, Organ Preludes: An Index to Compositions on Hymn Tunes, Chorales, Plainsong Melodies, Gregorian Tunes, and Carols. Edson wrote this with other organ players, like herself, in mind; she wanted other organists to have a good reference to the vast world of the instrument's repertoire. Her book outlines and cross-indexes over 3,000 different organ pieces for this purpose, and it was published by Scarecrow Press in 1970. Regarding compositional music, her two most popular pieces among the Fredericksburg community are those that she dedicated to Dr. Grellet C. Simpson, MWC Chancellor from 1956 to 1974. The first one titled \"Fanfare on G.C.S.\" for organ was composed for Dr. Simpson's inauguration, and the other one, titled \"From Age to Age\" for women's choir and organ, was composed for the tenth-year anniversary of his position. Other notable compositions by her include \"Missa Universalis,\" a work for men's choir, solo baritone, and organ that was commissioned and premiered by the Dartmouth College Glee Club, which had nearly fifty members at that time.","Sources:","MWC Today. \"In Memory of Jean Slater Edson.\" Winter 1986, 10.

Jean Slater began her education by obtaining a liberal arts degree from Vassar College, a Bachelor of Music with a minor in both science and math. From there, she pursued a Master of Arts of Music at Columbia University, where she also studied physics and earned a music fellowship abroad in Vienna, Austria. Jean Slater became Associate Professor of Music at Mary Washington College in 1947. After her first thirteen years of teaching there, she was additionally hired as a part-time professor of physics. Later, she would evenly split her time between her organ studio and physics labs at MWC. During her time at MWC, she married Andrew W. Edson and garnered the name that she would be known by today and in history: Jean Slater Edson. Likewise, some accounts and records of her refer to her as \"Mrs. Andrew W. Edson,\" denoting her status as married. Despite teaching at MWC, Edson was also an active member of the American Guild of Organists, which she held an Associate Degree and a Choir Master degree within. She retired from teaching at MWC in 1972 and died due to declining health on September 19, 1985.","In addition to her research for physics, Edson also researched music and wrote composition pieces of a large variety. Her most well-known non-composition work is her book, Organ Preludes: An Index to Compositions on Hymn Tunes, Chorales, Plainsong Melodies, Gregorian Tunes, and Carols. Edson wrote this with other organ players, like herself, in mind; she wanted other organists to have a good reference to the vast world of the instrument's repertoire. Her book outlines and cross-indexes over 3,000 different organ pieces for this purpose, and it was published by Scarecrow Press in 1970. Regarding compositional music, her two most popular pieces among the Fredericksburg community are those that she dedicated to Dr. Grellet C. Simpson, MWC Chancellor from 1956 to 1974. The first one titled \"Fanfare on G.C.S.\" for organ was composed for Dr. Simpson's inauguration, and the other one, titled \"From Age to Age\" for women's choir and organ, was composed for the tenth-year anniversary of his position. Other notable compositions by her include \"Missa Universalis,\" a work for men's choir, solo baritone, and organ that was commissioned and premiered by the Dartmouth College Glee Club, which had nearly fifty members at that time.","Sources:","MWC Today. \"In Memory of Jean Slater Edson.\" Winter 1986, 10.

Born on December 22, 1906, as Jean Slater, she grew to be equally interested in science and music. This passion led her to pursue both topics in higher education. Jean Slater began her education by obtaining a liberal arts degree from Vassar College, a Bachelor of Music with a minor in both science and math. From there, she pursued a Master of Arts of Music at Columbia University, where she also studied physics and earned a music fellowship abroad in Vienna, Austria. Jean Slater became Associate Professor of Music at Mary Washington College in 1947. After her first thirteen years of teaching there, she was additionally hired as a part-time professor of physics. Later, she would evenly split her time between her organ studio and physics labs at MWC. During her time at MWC, she married Andrew W. Edson and garnered the name that she would be known by today and in history: Jean Slater Edson. Likewise, some accounts and records of her refer to her as \"Mrs. Andrew W. Edson,\" denoting her status as married. Despite teaching at MWC, Edson was also an active member of the American Guild of Organists, which she held an Associate Degree and a Choir Master degree within. She retired from teaching at MWC in 1972 and died due to declining health on September 19, 1985.","In addition to her research for physics, Edson also researched music and wrote composition pieces of a large variety. Her most well-known non-composition work is her book, Organ Preludes: An Index to Compositions on Hymn Tunes, Chorales, Plainsong Melodies, Gregorian Tunes, and Carols. Edson wrote this with other organ players, like herself, in mind; she wanted other organists to have a good reference to the vast world of the instrument's repertoire. Her book outlines and cross-indexes over 3,000 different organ pieces for this purpose, and it was published by Scarecrow Press in 1970. Regarding compositional music, her two most popular pieces among the Fredericksburg community are those that she dedicated to Dr. Grellet C. Simpson, MWC Chancellor from 1956 to 1974. The first one titled \"Fanfare on G.C.S.\" for organ was composed for Dr. Simpson's inauguration, and the other one, titled \"From Age to Age\" for women's choir and organ, was composed for the tenth-year anniversary of his position. Other notable compositions by her include \"Missa Universalis,\" a work for men's choir, solo baritone, and organ that was commissioned and premiered by the Dartmouth College Glee Club, which had nearly fifty members at that time.","Sources:","MWC Today. \"In Memory of Jean Slater Edson.\" Winter 1986, 10.

Born on December 22, 1906, as Jean Slater, she grew to be equally interested in science and music. This passion led her to pursue both topics in higher education. Jean Slater began her education by obtaining a liberal arts degree from Vassar College, a Bachelor of Music with a minor in both science and math. From there, she pursued a Master of Arts of Music at Columbia University, where she also studied physics and earned a music fellowship abroad in Vienna, Austria. Jean Slater became Associate Professor of Music at Mary Washington College in 1947. After her first thirteen years of teaching there, she was additionally hired as a part-time professor of physics. Later, she would evenly split her time between her organ studio and physics labs at MWC. During her time at MWC, she married Andrew W. Edson and garnered the name that she would be known by today and in history: Jean Slater Edson. Likewise, some accounts and records of her refer to her as \"Mrs. Andrew W. Edson,\" denoting her status as married. Despite teaching at MWC, Edson was also an active member of the American Guild of Organists, which she held an Associate Degree and a Choir Master degree within. She retired from teaching at MWC in 1972 and died due to declining health on September 19, 1985.","In addition to her research for physics, Edson also researched music and wrote composition pieces of a large variety. Her most well-known non-composition work is her book, Organ Preludes: An Index to Compositions on Hymn Tunes, Chorales, Plainsong Melodies, Gregorian Tunes, and Carols. Edson wrote this with other organ players, like herself, in mind; she wanted other organists to have a good reference to the vast world of the instrument's repertoire. Her book outlines and cross-indexes over 3,000 different organ pieces for this purpose, and it was published by Scarecrow Press in 1970. Regarding compositional music, her two most popular pieces among the Fredericksburg community are those that she dedicated to Dr. Grellet C. Simpson, MWC Chancellor from 1956 to 1974. The first one titled \"Fanfare on G.C.S.\" for organ was composed for Dr. Simpson's inauguration, and the other one, titled \"From Age to Age\" for women's choir and organ, was composed for the tenth-year anniversary of his position. Other notable compositions by her include \"Missa Universalis,\" a work for men's choir, solo baritone, and organ that was commissioned and premiered by the Dartmouth College Glee Club, which had nearly fifty members at that time.","Sources:","MWC Today. \"In Memory of Jean Slater Edson.\" Winter 1986, 10.

The first one titled \"Fanfare on G.C.S.\" for organ was composed for Dr. Simpson's inauguration, and the other one, titled \"From Age to Age\" for women's choir and organ, was composed for the tenth-year anniversary of his position. Other notable compositions by her include \"Missa Universalis,\" a work for men's choir, solo baritone, and organ that was commissioned and premiered by the Dartmouth College Glee Club, which had nearly fifty members at that time.","Sources:","MWC Today. \"In Memory of Jean Slater Edson.\" Winter 1986, 10.
