Orff-Schulwerk is a creative way of learning and of making music. It includes singing, dancing and playing on the instruments. The programme gives an introduction into this pedagogical concept in an active way, letting experience the participants the role of the students but also reflect the way how to transfer this teaching system into their own professional field as a teacher. It is directed to all types of music teachers, including kindergarten, primary, secondary school and teachers of instruments.
