EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$0.65 HC-$16.45 DESCRIPTORS *Creative Expression, *Educational Programs, *Music Education IDENTIFIERS *Orff Schulwerk ABSTRACT The objectives of this program were to:(1) engender a class environment in which invention and improvisation of student composition will be encouraged,(2) provide supporting learning experiences with fundamental movement techniques, and (3) illuminate basic elements of composition connecting the organization of space and sound in artistic expression. A pilot study had preceded program implementation, and the original staff was used. Orff-instrumentaria were employed, and four classes were utilized, scheduled on a twice-weekly basis. Three results of the program are:(1) The Orff-Schulwerk in the United States have a recognized career in the project--a philosophical foundatiou, experimental teaching laboratory, and professional support in teacher training and evaluation; (2) National cooperation and exchange of ideas among educators with Orff-Schulwerk has a possibility of real growth through a continuing quarterly; (3) International thinking and research exchange in Orff-Schulwerk was recognized to have effect on the American mainstream of educational planning for innovation in teacher training, teaching facilities, and teaching goals.

Their work has reflected Carl Orff's personal concern with Schul- werk in the United States and the realistic integration of the original ideas into typical American school practice. Project Director, Martha Maybury (Smith) Wampler, on leave from her post as 777Frumental music specialist with the Bellflower Unified School District, undertook a study and teaching program in Orff-Schulwerk for thirty months in the Salzburg-Munich area in 1963-65. During this time her contacts with the other staff members began a Working relationship which was to give depth of understanding to the new Bellflower project. Project S ecialist, Frau Gertrud Orff, co-worker in the original Gunther chool Orff-Schulwerk in Munich, Germany, left her posts as teacher and specialist in Orff-Schulwerk in various Munich public and private schools for children and teacher training to head the pilot teaching in Bellflower. Specialist Assistant, Margit Cronmueller Smith, released by Dr. Orff from her faculty post at the Orff-lnstitut in Salzburg, Austria, joined the Bellflower staff in its second phase to expand the base of pilot teaching throughout a six city area.

The proposal met the standards of the new Federal Aid to Education bill signed by President Johnson in July, 1965, and survived the test of national competition. It was one of 69 educational projects to be selected from among 756 appli- cations filed from 44 states in the United States. Centrally located in the "megalopolis" of Los Angeles County where the population numbers over seven million inhabitants, this nationally sponsored Project had a unique advantage in the development of Schulwerk in the United States, The exact positioning of the Orff-Schulwerk American research in Bellflower, California may best be sighted by a recognition of three timely developments in education in America: (I) The accent on creativity (2) Interest in International exchange of people and ideas (3) Federal aid to education. These three sight-lines converged in Bellflower not by con- trivance, but through a series of innovative ventures which began to be recognized in1963. At that time the school district explored a plan to gain foundation money to support a proposed music-education research in cooperation with the California State College at Long Beach. Orff-Schulwerk was to be a part of the research. The bid for foundation support failed but the administration of the Bellflower School District seemed committed to try again. The schools had acquired a reputation in the area for innovation since leading the trend toward elementary-secondary unification during the fifties. The individual study of Orff-Schulwerk in Europe of Martha Maybury (Smith) Wampler began in Summer, 1963 and was assisted by a Fulbright-Hays Scholarship during the 1964-65 school year. -9- When the new.education bill was introduced to Congress, there- fore, Dr. W. Norman Wampler, the superintendent, and Dr. Charlotte Stevenson, the coordinator of music, acted immediately to renew research planning. In a letter to Martha Maybury Wampler, then in Munich Germany, June, 1965, they proposed that she return to Bellflower to direct the project as a first depth study of Orff-Schulwerk in United States. Bringing Orff-Schulwerk to Bellflower was, from the first, a challenge in maintaining unencumbered freedom from hybrid influence. In providing for a direct communication between Carl Orff, the German pedagogical innovator, and American experiments, extraneous ideas riot pertinent to this objective simply were not considered. While American modification of the basic Schulwerk concept was desirable, the project planners nevertheless, resisted involvement at the outset with traditional music program concepts and with fragmentary American versions of Orff's ideas. As a result of two and one-half years of study and teaching in the Munich-Salzburg area (1963-1966), Martha Maybury Wampler was able to invite the support of the leading European author- ities in Orff-Schulwerk in preparing the Bellflower study. It is important that the Project application was written during a four month period by the superintendent of schools, Dr. Wampler, who maintained constant communication with the planners in Europe. Dr. Carl Orff, Dr. Walter Kaun, Munich, Germany, and Professor Wilhelm Keller, Director, Orff-lnstitut, Salzburg, Austria, and other teachers with whom Martha Wampler worked, were thus able to contribute their years of experience and special knowledge to the gestating design of a "dream" school situation. This vitallink with Orff-Schulwerk's origins during the planning period has marked the project with authority and direction so observable in its subsequent development. Orff-Schulwerk was introduced in Bellflower into a limited pilot- teaching program using specialists direct from work in the European origin of the movement. Philosophical strength and understanding of the main-stream of American culture to supple- ment the proposed laboratory work with children was the work of a committee of American university scholars. This committee was headed by Dr. Robert Haas, Head, Department of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, University of California Extension, Los Angeles; Dr. William Hutchinson, Assistant Dean, College of Fine Arts, University of California at Los Angeles; Dr. Dean Flower, Department of Literature, University of Southern California; Mrs. Bess Lomax Hawes, Department of Anthropology, San Fernando State College at Northridge; Mr. Richard Harsh, Educational Testing Service, Los Angeles. They would function closely with 9 10 the Project Director and special teachers toward planting Orff's ideas in the most productive way. Carl Orff assisted in securing the cooperation of Frau Gertrud Orff as special teacher-consultant for the first stages of the project. Frau Orff chose, subsequently, to continue in the Project and returned again to the United States. Miss Margit Cronmueller came for the 1966-67 school year. Dr. Orff granted her leave-of-absence from the staff of the Orff-lnstitut

  • Carmina Burana Carl Orff (1895–1982) Composed: 1935–1936 Style: Contemporary Duration: 58 Minutes
    Carmina Burana Carl Orff (1895–1982) Composed: 1935–1936 Style: Contemporary Duration: 58 minutes The Latin title of tonight’s major work, translated literally as “Songs of Beuren,” comes from the Abby of Benediktbeuren where a book of poems was discovered in 1803. The Abbey is located about 30 miles south of Munich, where the composer Carl Orff was born, educated, and spent most of his life. The 13th century book contains roughly 200 secular poems that describe medieval times. The poems, written by wandering scholars and clerics known as Goliards, attack and satirize the hypocrisy of the Church while praising the self-indulgent virtues of love, food, and drink. Their language and form often parody liturgical phrases and conventions. Similarly, Orff often uses the styles and conventions of 13th century church music, most notably plainchant, to give an air of seriousness and reverence to the texts that their actual meaning could hardly demand. In addition to plainchant, however, the eclectic musical material relies upon all kinds of historical antecedents— from flamenco rhythms (no. 17, “Stetit puella”) to operatic arias (no. 21, “Intrutina”) to chorale texture (no. 24, “Ave formosissima”). The 24 poems that compose Carmina Burana are divided into three large sections— “Springtime,” “In the Tavern,” and “Court of Love” —plus a prologue and epilogue. The work begins with the chorus “Fortuna imperatrix mundi,” (“Fortune, Empress of the World”), which bemoans humankind’s helplessness in the face of the fickle wheel of fate. “Rising first, then declining, hateful life treats us badly, then with kindness, making sport of our desires.” After a brief morality tale, “Fortune plango vunera,” the “Springtime” section begins.

  • Carl Orffs Hesperische Musik
    MATTHIAS JOHANNES PERNERSTORFER / WIEN Carl Orffs hesperische Musik Carl Orffs ‚Antigonae‘ (1940–49) und ‚Oedi pus der Tyrann‘ (1951– 58) nach Sophokles in der Übersetzung von Friedrich Hölderlin sowie der aischyleische ‚Prometheus‘ (1963–67) in der Originalsprache gehören zu den bedeutendsten Beiträgen zur musikalischen Rezeption der Antike im 20. Jahrhundert. Ich folge Stefan Kunze im Gebrauch der Bezeichnung Tragödien-Bearbeitungen für die genannten Bühnenwerke, da „kein musi- kalisches Werk (Vertonung) auf der Grundlage eines Tragödientextes … das Ziel [ist] …, sondern die [interpretative, Anm. d. A.1 ] Darstellung der Tragödie mit musikalischen Mitteln“.2 Es handelt sich um eine Form des Musiktheaters ganz eigener Art – „gleich weit entfernt vom Sprechtheater herkömmlicher Prägung wie von der Oper und von der … Bühnenmusik“.3 Auch wenn der Musikhistoriker Werner Schubert vor einigen Jahren dia- gnostizierte: „Daß es [Orff] … nicht um eine Rekonstruktion antiker Aufführungspraxis ging, muß man heute nicht mehr eigens betonen“,4 so möchte ich anmerken, daß die Tragödien-Bearbeitungen Orffs von vielen Philologen wie Theaterwissenschaftlern, die die musikwissenschaftliche Diskussion nicht mitverfolgen, wohl noch immer – sei es zustimmend oder ablehnend – als Rekonstruktionsversuche rezipiert werden. Der Grund dafür liegt in der zum Teil euphorischen Reaktion von zeitgenössischen Philologen, durch die Orffs Werke den Stellenwert von authentischen Wie- dergaben der altgriechischen Tragödien erreichten. Jahrzehntelang widmete sich Carl Orff den Tragödien-Bearbeitungen, wobei nicht von einem Weg des Komponisten in die Geistes- oder Musik- welt der Antike gesprochen werden kann. DieAntike diente ihm in Form —————————— 1 Zum Interpretationscharakter dieser „Darstellung der Tragödie“ s.u. 2 Kunze 1998, 547. 3 Schubert 1998, 405. 4 Schubert 1998, 403. 122 Matthias Johannes Pernerstorfer ihrer Texte als Medium, das er im Sinne von Höl derlins Antikerezeption mit Blick auf eine abendländische Gegenwart – deshalb ‚hesperisch‘ – gestaltete.

  • Carl Orff Carmina Burana (1937)
    CARL ORFF CARMINA BURANA (1937) CARL ORFF CARMINA BURANA (1937) CARMINA: Plural of Carmen, Latin for song. BURANA: Latin for, from Bayern, Bavaria. CANTATA VERSUS ORATORIO: Ø Cantata: A sacred or secular work for chorus and orchestra. Ø Oratorio: An opera without scenery or costumes. THE MUSIC: Ø A collection of 24 songs, most in Latin, some in Middle High German, with a few French words. THE SPECTACLE: Ø Seventy piece orchestra. Ø Large chorus of men, women and boys and girls. Ø Three soloists: tenor, baritone and soprano. THE POETRY: Ø The Medieval Latin poetry of Carmina Burana is in a style called Saturnian that dates back to 200 B.C. It was accented and stressed, used by soldiers on the march, tavern patrons and children at play. Later used by early Christians. Ø While the poems are secular, some are hymn-like. Orff’s arrangements highlight this. Ø The poems were composed by 13th century Goliards, Medieval itinerant street poets who lived by their wits, going from town to town, entertaining people for a few coins. Many were ex monks or university drop-outs. Ø Common Goliard themes include disaffection with society, mockery of the church, carnal desire and love. Ø Benedictine monks in a Bavarian monastery, founded in 733 in Beuern, in the Alps south of Munich, collected these Goliardic poems. Ø After the dissolution of the monastery in 1803, some two hundred of these poems were published in 1847 by Andreas Schmeller, a dialect scholar, in an anthology that he labeled Carmina Burana. Ø Orff discovered these in 1935 and, with the help of the poet Michael Hoffman, organized twenty-four poems from the collection into a libretto by the same name.

    INDIANAPOLIS OPERA COMPANY PRESENTS How to fight inflation. * It looks like a piano. And it sounds like a piano. But it's more than a piano. It's a Steinway. And that means that it's not only a fine musical instrument. It's a fine investment as well. So fine, that people with 30 year old Steinways are selling them today for more than they originally paid. What makes a Steinway such a blue chip investment? Work. Experience. Work. Caring. Work. Using mortised joints where butt joints could get by. Making each individual hammer instead of buying them from someone else. Voicing each piano for 8 full hours. A thousand other details. It takes a full year of this kind of work to complete one Steinway grand. A year that pays dividends in tone, touch and power year after year after year. What this means is that although you pay more, a Steinway doesn't really cost more. Because no matter how you decide to play it, a Steinway outperforms the market.

  • Brecht's Antigone in Performance
    PERFORMANCE PHILOSOPHY RHYTHM AND STRUCTURE: BRECHT’S ANTIGONE IN PERFORMANCE BRUNO C. DUARTE FCSH UNIVERSIDADE NOVA DE LISBOA Brecht’s adaptation of Sophocles’ Antigone in 1948 was openly a political gesture that aspired to the complete rationalization of Greek Tragedy. From the beginning, Brecht made it his task to wrench ancient tragic poetry out of its ‘ideological haze’, and proceeded to dismantle and eliminate what he named the ‘element of fate’, the crucial substance of tragic myth itself. However, his encounter with Hölderlin's unorthodox translation of Antigone, the main source for his appropriation and rewriting of the play, led him to engage in a radical experiment in theatrical practice. From the isolated first performance of Antigone, a model was created—the Antigonemodell —that demanded a direct confrontation with the many obstacles brought about by the foreign structure of Greek tragedy as a whole. In turn, such difficulties brought to light the problem of rhythm in its relation to Brecht’s own ideas of how to perform ancient poetry in a modern setting, as exemplified by the originally alienating figure of the tragic chorus. More importantly, such obstacles put into question his ideas of performance in general, as well as the way they can still resonate in our own understanding of what performance is or might be in a broader sense. 1947–1948: Swabian inflections It is known that upon returning from his American exile, at the end of 1947, Bertolt Brecht began to work on Antigone, the tragic poem by Sophocles. Brecht’s own Antigone premiered in the Swiss city of Chur on February 1948.

  • Kodály and Orff: a Comparison of Two Approaches in Early Music Education
    ZKÜ Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi, Cilt 8, Sayı 15, 2012 ZKU Journal of Social Sciences, Volume 8, Number 15, 2012 KODÁLY AND ORFF: A COMPARISON OF TWO APPROACHES IN EARLY MUSIC EDUCATION Yrd.Doç.Dr. Dilek GÖKTÜRK CARY Karabük Üniversitesi Safranbolu Fethi Toker Güzel Sanatlar ve Tasarım Fakültesi Müzik Bölümü [email protected] ABSTRACT The Hungarian composer and ethnomusicologist Zoltán Kodály (1882-1967) and the German composer Carl Orff (1895-1982) are considered two of the most influential personalities in the arena of music education during the twentieth-century due to two distinct teaching methods that they developed under their own names. Kodály developed a hand-sign method (movable Do) for children to sing and sight-read while Orff’s goal was to help creativity of children through the use of percussive instruments. Although both composers focused on young children’s musical training the main difference between them is that Kodály focused on vocal/choral training with the use of hand signs while Orff’s main approach was mainly on movement, speech and making music through playing (particularly percussive) instruments. Finally, musical creativity via improvisation is the main goal in the Orff Method; yet, Kodály’s focal point was to dictate written music. Key Words: Zoltán Kodály, Carl Orff, The Kodály Method, The Orff Method. KODÁLY VE ORFF: ERKEN MÜZİK EĞİTİMİNDE KULLANILAN İKİ METODUN BİR KARŞILAŞTIRMASI ÖZET Macar besteci ve etnomüzikolog Zoltán Kodály (1882-1967) ve Alman besteci Carl Orff (1895-1982) geliştirmiş oldukları farklı 2 öğretim metodundan dolayı 20. yüzyılda müzik eğitimi alanında en etkili 2 kişi olarak anılmaktadırlar. Kodály çocukların şarkı söyleyebilmeleri ve deşifre yapabilmeleri için el işaretleri metodu (gezici Do) geliştirmiş, Orff ise vurmalı çalgıların kullanımı ile çocukların yaratıcılıklarını geliştirmeyi hedef edinmiştir.
