The Moving Body in the Aural Skills Classroom-influenced by
Dalcroze-eurhythmics-is a practical guide for college-level
teachers and students interested in integrating the moving body
into the traditional aural skills classroom. What distinguishes
this book from other texts is its central concern with
movement-to-music as a tool for developing musical perception and
the kinesthetic aspects humans experience as performers. Moving to
music and watching others move cultivates an active, multi-sensory
learning experience, in which students learn by discovery and from
each other. Improvisatory and expressive elements are built into
exercises to encourage a dynamic link between musical training and
artistic performance. Designed for a three- to four-semester
undergraduate curriculum, the book contains a wealth of exercises
that teach rhythmic, melodic, harmonic and formal concepts.
Exercises not only develop the ear, but also awaken the muscular
and nervous system, foster mind-body connections, strengthen the
powers of concentration (being in the "musical now "), develop
inner-hearing, short- and long-term memory, multi-tasking skills,
limb autonomy, and expressive freedom. Exercises are presented in a
graded, though flexible order allowing you to select individual
exercises in any sequence. Activities involve movement through
space (traveling movement) as well as movement in place (stationary
movement) for those teaching in small classrooms. The text can be
used as a teacher's manual, a supplementary aural-skills textbook,
or as a stand-alone reference in a course dedicated to eurhythmics.
Movement exercises are designed to enhance and work in conjunction
with musical examples presented in other texts. Many exercises also
provide an effective aural/sensory tool in the music theory
classroom to complement verbal explanations. The approach
integrates easily into any traditional college or conservatory
classroom and is compatible with the following systems: fixed do,
moveable do, and scale degrees. A companion website accompanies the
text featuring undergraduate students performing select exercises.
