ORFF SCHULWERK IN DIVERSE CULTURES – AN IDEA THAT WENT ROUND THE WORLD (ed. Barbara Haselbach and Carolee Stewart)
Published by Pentatonic Press 2021, San Francisco, California. $20.00 (US)​
With contributions by Hermann Regner, Mary Shamrock, Wolfgang Hartmann, Michael Kugler, Doug Goodkin, as well as by representatives of about 25 national Orff-Schulwerk Associations.
​Orff-Schulwerk in different cultures - An idea that went around the world is a commentary on the phenomenon of the worldwide spread of the Orff Schulwerk, which has been in a continuous process since its origins in Central Europe more than 70 years ago. In documenting the various adaptations of the Orff Schulwerk, 76 authors describe the characteristics and differences resulting from its integration into the cultural traditions and educational systems of individual countries.

‘MOVEMENT AND DANCE IN ORFF-SCHULWERK’, (edited by Barbara Haselbach, Verena Maschat, Carolee Stewart)

​​​​​​​​​​​
​
​
Movement and Dance in Orff Schulwerk is devoted to an aspect of the Schulwerk that has been integrated from the beginning but has to date received little written documentation relative to the extensive music resources that are available in multiple languages.
Part 1 includes historical and theoretical background.
Part 2 describes various content areas in which movement and dance are approached in the Schulwerk
Part 3 illustrates movement and dance with many different target groups.
Fifty-six authors from many different countries and cultures have collaborated on articles that broaden our knowledge about how movement and dance can be integrated with music and speech guided by the artistic-pedagogical concept developed by Carl Orff, Dorothee Günther and Gunild Keetman.
