Tara Foley Active Approaches: Carl Orff

Foley 2 Biography of Carl Orff Carl Orff was born on July 10, 1895 and lived until 1985. He was born to a military father and pianist mother. At an early age, Orff began to play many instruments, including piano, cello, and organ.. Orff began composing when he was young, being especially inspired by theater. Before he officially enrolled at the Munich Academy of Music in 1912 at age 17, Orff had already composed and published several songs and an opera and had begun classes at the Academy in harmony. After beginning at the Munich Academy of Music, Orff began to actively develop his ideas towards music education. At the time, he began to feel too closed off within the institute and sought compositional inspiration from contemporary avant-garde composers such as Schonberg and Debussy. In 1917, Orff was drafted into the war for a short period, until he was wounded and released from the service. During his time after serving in the military, he started to study Monterverdi scores. He continued to compo

THE ORFF METHOD: HISTORY The Orff Method, created by Carl Orff, is a way of teaching children music that engages their whole self, physically and mentally. It is a mixture of dancing, singing, using percussion instruments and, at times, acting. This method values the role of play and movement while learning different concepts. Also known as Orff-Schulwerk (literally translated to “school work”, in regards to the area of music) or Music for Children, this method was first developed in the early 1920’s with the help of Gunild Keetman. However, other theories state that Mary Wigman, a student of Emile Jaques-Delacroze, who was also very influential in music education, also assisted Orff in developing this method.

In 1924, Carl Orff joined together with another teacher and created the Guenther School, which focused on gymnastics, dance and music. They believed that music, dance and speech work together, rather than being separate id
