Resonanze Project

Resonanze Project Resonanze Project brings Kodály-based Music Education to our community. What is this Kodály approach about?

Let every child come to sing and rhyme, play games, and dance, followed in steps by Solfa and sight-singing, as we fully develop the musical ear!! Zoltán Kodály, 1882-1967, (Hungarian composer, ethnomusicologist,
music pedagogue, linguist, and philosopher), developed a philosophy for music education which has spread far and wide since its conception in the mid-20th century. The philosophy was birthed due to Kodály’s deep concern for the low level of musical ability and cultural heritage in young people of his day. He believed that music should be taught in all schools, based on the following philosophy:

- Music belongs to everyone.
- Music should be taught in such a way that it is a JOYFUL process.
- Music education should centre around singing since it is the most natural instrument, available to everyone, and the best way to develop inner hearing (the ability to think in music).
- Musical exposure and training should begin 9 months before birth.
- Music literacy is the right of every person.
- The folk music of a child’s mother tongue is the best material to teach the skills and concepts needed for musical literacy. Later folk music from other cultures also provides excellent teaching material. Folk music provides a bridge for the study of art music.
- Only music of the highest quality should be used in music education.
- Music is necessary for the development of the total person.
- Music teachers should themselves be the best musicians and educators possible. Let every child come to sing and rhyme, play games, and dance, as we fully develop the musical ear!!
