Dalcroze Eurhythmics Video
with Robert M. Abramson
written by Timothy Caldwell
What is Eurhythmics? It is the oldest of the modern methods of teaching
music, a method in which all musical concepts are taught through movement.
Eurhythmics was developed by Emile Jaques-Dalcroze
(1865–1950), because “all music begins with a physical motion, therefore
the first instrument to be trained is the body.”
This video features Robert M. Abramson, the internationally
acclaimed teacher of Dalcroze Eurhythmics, giving children and adults
their first Eurhythmics lesson, and demonstrating more advanced games
with college music majors and faculty. Written and produced by Timothy Caldwell.
Join Abramson as he blends humor and artistry to introduce and demonstrate this
sensational method. This is an experience anyone involved in teaching music should not miss!

Music for Movement
by James O. Froseth, Albert Blaser, and Phyllis Weikart
Rhythm is the organizing principle of musical performance—it’s what
holds music together. The ability to move to music is an important
prerequisite to the development of music listening, reading, writing,
and performance.
This recording and its accompanying manual are designed to
provide the motivation and the instructional sequence necessary
for success. Fun, varied music in a variety of styles and meters are
accompanied by a manual full of ideas. All activities in the manual are
illustrated for students in a seated position, where students are most likely to feel safe and
secure. Appropriate for students of all ages.
