A Sustainable Approach to 21st Century Music Education

The 21st Century Orff Schulwerk model accentuates the Schulwerk as a hands-on approach that focuses on the joy of elemental music making which emphasizes creativity, facilitates collaborative learning, and provides multiple means of expression of self and material. This workshop presents pieces from the Orff Schulwerk volumes, diverse children’s literature, multicultural songs, folk dances and more, using this model of making instruction and learning more visible.
