From Exploration to Ensemble: A Pathway to Orff Ensemble Skills

Tuesday, July 7, 2:45pm - 3:45pm (EDT)

Time shown in-04:00 America, New York

How do we move from simple xylophone exploration to Orff ensemble playing? In this session, we will use exploration, speech, song, and movement to guide students towards rhythm development, melodic understanding, improvisation, and ultimately, ensemble performance.

Emphasis will be placed on scaffolding, student choice within structure, and building technique through authentic music-making. You will leave with adaptable strategies and ready-to-use ideas that will support both creativity and musicianship in the elementary music classroom.
