“Moved to Learn: Choral Eurhythmics” — Caron Daley (2012)

Experience a Dalcroze education class from the 2012 National Conference.

Explore the natural rhythms that accompany movement: inspired by bodily motion, by spatial elements, or by moving in relation to others.

Experience a movement class from the 2010 National Conference.

Using embodied approaches to ear training, we’ll learn “Che Gusto” by Antonio Caldara, which employs the harmonic progression of descending 5ths. We remember beloved Dalcroze teacher Lisa Parker in this class, who adored this canon.

Discover how eurhythmics fosters a deep connection between music and movement, enhancing both teaching and learning. In this introductory session, we’ll explore the foundational Dalcroze concept of time, space, and energy—developing kinesthetic awareness and musical expression through purposeful movement.

In this children's demo class, Ruth Alperson teaches musical concepts through movement and singing. Students learn musical phrases by moving and singing them, and then they notate them.
