Where Innovation Meets Tradition

”A music exclusively for children that could be played, sung and danced by them, but that could also in a similar way be invented by them— a world of their own.”
– Carl Orff

Faculty

Our esteemed faculty are all still working with children, most for over 25 years, and are much in demand in teacher-training workshops and courses nationwide and worldwide.

Certification Program

The course is taught through first-hand experiences in rhythmic speech, body percussion, singing, movement, folk dance, recorder and ensemble play on the Orff instrumentarium.

Application Process

We can offer the highest level scholarships for Level I, partial for Level II, none for Level III. The scholarship is reserved for those coming from cultures with markedly different economies and for those with true financial need.
