I write mostly about music and music education from my perspective as a Dalcroze teacher.
Blog:
Series:
- Articles on the Musical Subjects I am thinking about and working with in the classroom.
- During the lockdown, I posted short articles on Dalcroze subjects and materials for Dalcroze Practice at home.
- In 2017, I wrote about one class of 7-9 year-olds for a whole year.
note: I have been writing for years about my classes and teaching, mostly for pedagogy students, adult Dalcroze practitioners, and the families of the children I teach. I’m s l o w l y building a resource page here..
For Adult Dalcroze Students and Practitioners:
Ways to think about specific musical subject in your practice and for your teaching: Meter, Beat, Subdivision
Ways to practice music through the Dalcroze approach: Cross-rhythms, Divisions of 12
For Families of Young Students:
What we work on: movement, rhythm, pitch
What goes on in the classroom? Attention; FAQ’s for adult/child classes; Phrase; Meter; Register and Scale
