Advance Eurhythmics

Recorded at the 2023 National Conference.

In this 75-minute collaboration, we will explore the idea of a personal inner tempo and then consider the challenge of “being music” that is at tempos more-than and less-than our authentic selves. How am I to feel the reality of another? With examples from Bach, La Bottine Souriante, and Satie, we will consider the difference between playing the notes of and being the music of another.

In this "joyful beginning" to the 2020 National Conference, see participants become more comfortable with—and conscious of—the larger group, many of whom they are meeting for the first time.

Experience a Dalcroze education class from the 2012 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.

How can movement cultivate a more profound sense of musicality? This session examines how Dalcroze principles can enhance aesthetic education by deepening musicianship, refining intuition, and nurturing creativity. Experience firsthand how embodied strategies bring music to life.
