Overview
MUSI 563: Orff Schulwerk I. 3 credits
Level I is largely experiential – a time in which the class as an ensemble comes together exploring, developing skills, creating, and analyzing music and movement activities. Elemental Music is approached through hands-on experiences, lively discussions, and solid musical models which help develop both skills and concepts and provide tools for creating your own active music-making curriculum. Prompt, daily attendance is expected. Please do not schedule appointments or other commitments during this time – successful completion is based on required contact hours. As an ensemble experience, your fellow participants depend on you.
