Arwen de Castellanos and Lydia Mills, who are both performers of traditional Latin American music and classroom music teachers, bring a lively workshop with lovely melodies and fun-filled Spanish language games for your classroom. New repertoire for use with the early elements so-mi, la, ta, titi, and rest will be presented, as well as more advanced traditional singing games from regions of Mexico, Argentina, Puerto Rico and Peru for older students. Lydia will also report on her experiences in giving introductory Kodály workshops in Puerto Rico, Peru, and Colombia and on the rapidly growing interest from music teachers from all over Latin America in Kodály’s wonderful approach to teaching music to children.
