Working with children 4: Solfeggio with Children in a Pleasant Way
Panda van PROOSDIJ (NL)

Learning all musical elements is most effective if the ear, eye and body as a whole are involved in the learning process. The more the body is involved in what you do, the better the children will remember, and they like it!
The music itself is the source for working on solfège. We will practice sol-fa using simple folk melodies and choral compositions.
A practical workshop for music teachers and conductors of children’s and youth choirs.
