March 22-23, 2018 Prairie Winds Orff at NDMEA!
Two Sessions, Thursday, March 22
2:30 pm - 3:20 pm "Introduction to Orff: Speech! Movement! Body Percussion!
A hallmark of lessons utilizing an “Orff approach” is beginning with either speech or movement. Come and immerse yourself in an Orff experience using speech, movement, body percussion, and unpitched percussion--no xylophones or recorders in sight! No instruments? No problem! The body is all we need.
3:30 pm - 4:20 pm "Introduction to Orff: Process to Performance!"
Orff teachers often speak of the “process,” or how we scaffold instruction from a small idea into a larger piece. Come explore a typical process beginning with imitation that leads to exploration, expanding into a larger idea, complete with movement, melody, and opportunities for student-driven creation; the true achievement of an Orff Schulwerk lesson.
