Do you ever wonder why what you have been told about music doesn't made sense to you? Do you think you can't carry a tune in a bucket? Did formal training get in the way of musical success? This workshop is a perfect opportunity discover that music is not just for the "talented." Topics will include:

• Beyond listening: how to HEAR music
• The beat goes on (and on and on)
• Singing outside the shower (without fear)
• Movement and music connections

Note from the instructor - "Talented" musicians are welcome as well. If you have always been a "from the page" musician, you may discover some new ways to approach making music.

About the instructor

Marjie Van Gunten's training includes undergraduate and graduate degrees in music - but more importantly, many years of experience learning from her students as they discover the joy that comes through a relaxed and comfortable approach to learning the language of music. Her training in music education includes Orff Schulwerk certification in music and movement.

She has been a frequent presenter at music educator conferences and professional development workshops and has authored two books and numerous journal articles about the practice of teaching music. She taught music at the college level for 20 years and recently retired from 40 years of teaching children and adults. She now sings with the birds and dances to the rhythm of the waves.
