Abstract: I consider a reformulation of QCD which incorporates additional bosonic fields, and analyze it in the large-N limit. This construction makes a more direct connection with the nonrelativistic quark and the chiral quark models, as well as the bag model for baryons. This extension of QCD is neither a model nor an effective low energy theory, but is exactly equivalent to QCD.
