Orff Schulwerk Today

Nurturing Musical Expression and Understanding

By Jane Frazee

Book and CD

256 pages

Almost a half-century of significant pedagogical contributions have propelled Orff Schulwerk to prominence on the North American music education landscape. Orff Schulwerk Today celebrates this playful, child-centered, participatory approach and offers a fresh synthesis of doing and understanding that encourages students to express themselves in - and realize themselves through - music.

Seven Orff Schulwerk master teachers share their classroom expertise and insights, enriching the text. Collections of American songs and rhymes augment materials from the Orff/Keetman volumes and supplements to address music and movement objectives. More than 100 lesson suggestions highlight musical elements and encourage self-expression. A CD of listening examples from a variety of historical periods and cultural contexts enhances the book.
