4 months – 9 years

Orff-Schulwerk is a holistic approach to music education. The Orff program is based on the philosophy that the gift for sound, rhythm, movement, problem-solving and creative expression is innate in each individual, and that each child is capable of artistic expression, reasoning, learning, and creating.

It is a child-centered approach where music-making is experiential, non-competitive and performed in an atmosphere of fun, joy and discovery. Orff classes embrace all facets of creative music education through speech, poems, body percussion, dance and creative movement, instrumental play, improvisation and composition.

Reading of simple rhythmic notation will be introduced in the 5-7 year old class and instruction on soprano recorder will begin in the 7-9 year old class.
