“Culture cannot be taken over like an apartment, furniture or clothing.Each generation has to study it and experience it afresh.” – Zoltán Kodálya well-trained ear – listening and singing skillsa well-trained mind – musical understanding through music making and musicianship skills developmenta well-trained heart – emotional development and social skillsa well-trained hand – musical performance skillsThese four points are the most important aspects of a person’s musical and personal development as summed up by Zoltán Kodály in his article Who is a good musician? That summary has been adopted as a mission statement by teachers and students of the Kodály method all around the world. They are aspects that are important not only for professional musicians, but also for amateurs, music lovers and listeners seeking to understand the language of music. The Kodály method is one of the principal reasons for the relatively high standard of Hungarian choirs.In the internationally oriented Master’s specialisation in Music Education according to the Kodály method (which is taught in English) you will be trained as a specialist in teaching music according to the Kodály concept. You will learn to apply knowledge and practical skills in teaching music, both instrumental and singing, in schools and elsewhere.The course consists of three related areas of study: method, musicianship skills and research. In your research you will translate the Kodály concept to your own musicianship and teaching. An important aspect of music teaching according to the Kodály concept is the close relationship between musicianship and art, between methodology and musical content and between methodological principles and didactic practice. Making music, understanding music and the musical learning process are one and the same.During the course you will follow master classes given by international guest lecturers. You may also be able to spend a period on an Erasmus exchange programme as part of the course.
