Games and Songs in Five
With Anthony Molinaro, Dalcroze Certificate
Recorded June 6, 2024
Conventional wisdom holds that meters of five are somehow inherently more difficult than meters of two, three, four, or six. In this session, participants will experience a series of games and songs that connect young children to uneven meters and encourage them to groove naturally with these patterns!
