The Eurhythmics of Jaques-Dalcroze

More about the book

The book explores the innovative approach of Dalcroze eurhythmics, developed by Émile Jaques-Dalcroze, which emphasizes learning music through movement. This method not only enhances musical understanding but also fosters natural expression by engaging the body as a musical instrument. Dalcroze's pedagogy, comprising eurhythmics, solfège, and improvisation, has significantly influenced music education, particularly in the U.S., and serves as a foundation for developing a vibrant musical foundation in students.
