MUE 601-21 – Innovations in Elementary Music Education, Conversational Solfege (3)
June 19-23, 8:30 am – 4:30 pm
John Feirerabend, University of Hartford
With the Conversational Solfege approach, music literacy starts with great literature and ear before-eye; philosophy that correlates with the National Standards. Great songs are broken down into their component parts and then reassembled so that students can bring greater musical understanding to everything they do. The ultimate goal is to create fully engaged, independent musicians who can hear, understand, read, write, compose, and improvise. Students will receive certification in Conversational Solfege Method by the Feierabend Association for Music Education at the completion of this course.
