SUMMARY:Grant Event - Training the Ear and the Eye From the Start: The Hoffman Method
DESCRIPTION:Location: Zoom\, for access please contact Jan Miller\nPresenting District: Blue Mountain\nPresenter: Joseph Hoffman[expand title=”Read Presenter Bio” swaptitle=” “]Joseph Hoffman began playing the piano at age six. In high school\, he studied with Alfred Mouledous\, principal pianist for the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. While continuing his musical studies in piano and conducting at Brigham Young University\, Mr. Hoffman was appointed chorusmaster and conductor for numerous BYU opera productions\, including Carmen and Pirates of Penzance. He conducted the 300-voice University Chorale and taught courses for music majors in music theory\, conducting and sightsinging. \nIn order to help pay his way through grad school\, Mr. Hoffman began teaching piano lessons to kids in the neighborhood. He wanted his students to love music and piano playing as much as he did\, but he struggled to find a piano method that provided a rigorous\, well-rounded musical training\, while still being fun and engaging. Over the next several years\, he made it his personal quest to study all he could about learning theory\, and he actively researched the best methods available for teaching music. It was from these years of study\, exploration\, and experimentation that the “Hoffman Method” of teaching piano was born.[/expand] \nProgram Description: Researchers have known for decades[expand title=”Read More” swaptitle=” “]that young children do not learn best from books\, but through direct experience. Joseph Hoffman will share techniques and activities which will immerse the children you teach in a rich array of musical experiences through singing\, movement\, and engaging activities that explore rhythm\, pitch\, and reading notes on the staff. Building on this solid foundation of musical awareness and skill\, children develop a fluent piano technique and acquire an impressive repertoire of piano literature. The end result is students who are adept at playing by both ear and by sight. This program has been used over the last ten years with hundreds of students in both group and private settings\, and the results have been remarkably positive..[/expand]
