Sing, say, dance play.
Info of Workshop:
  "Sing, say, dance play." These words are the cornerstone of the practice of Orff Schulwerk. The session, Playing with Pieces, focuses on the word play in all senses of the word. Participants will play games, play instruments, and most importantly play with the presented materials in order to experience the material in as many ways as is possible in a short amount of time. With any luck participants will be inspired to not only continue to play with the lessons given, but will look at their own lessons with fresh eyes and endless possibilities.
