E-mail Print PDF

Orff is a genre of music and a method of music instruction that makes extensive use of percussion instruments, immitation and movement. This method was developed by Carl Orff in the early twentieth century.  The Orff method is very effective in developing a student's music skills using specially designed Orff instruments to teach important concepts such as beat and rhythm, phrasing, and ensemble playing with multi-layered textures and sonorities. Students learn the basics of music, while preparing fun pieces for an end-of-term performance.
