Orff Training

At the University of Mary, we are pleased to offer Level I and II Orff Training as a two-week, summer course. Orff training introduces participants to the Orff-Schulwerk process of music education. While doing coursework in basic pedagogy, recorder, and movement, participants will not only discover how to ‘process teach’ in a way that makes sense to kids, but they will discover their own musicianship and teaching strengths. Orff-Schulwerk focuses on creating music in a deep and meaningful way through singing, speaking, body percussion, instruments, movement, and more.
Our Level I and II Orff Training is approved by the American Orff-Schulwerk Association (AOSA) and is sponsored by the University of Mary Music Department and the Prairie Wind Orff Chapter. Current members of Prairie Winds Orff can apply for a scholarship, which is to be used toward the cost of registration.
