Gault, Brent
General Music Today, v19 n1 p7-9 Fall 2005
The article discusses music learning through aural, visual and kinesthetic strategies. Most general music teachers are aware of the contributions made to the profession by proponents of the Dalcroze, Kodaly, and Orff approaches to music instruction. It was claimed that students used one of the said strategies as their most efficient way to process information when learning. Such approaches promote experiential learning that emphasizes musical participation before conceptual understanding.
