Ontogenesis Ontogenesis is a derived word, from the prefix, onto, meaning “having to do with the essence of a thing” and genesis, meaning “the beginning”. Ontogenesis refers to the beginning of the essence of a melody or rhythm (JW). The common usage of Ontogenesis refers to the sequencing of lessons. In what order do we present rhythmic concepts Which ones are developmentally appropriate At what grade or maturity level are students able to internalize rhythm Ontogenesis as used by Jos Wuytack gives a specific order of presentation for rhythmic and melodic concepts! As always it’s only a suggested order and there is much debate in education on this very topic. Jos has based his studies on the work of Carl Orff and his own detailed and well documented research. His teaching since 1969 has been dedicated to sharing his ideas including the original idea, Ontogenesis. The class today is based on the work of Professor Wuytack. Ontogenesis of Rhythm: ❧❧ There are two meters: Binary and ternary. Binary or Duple meters include 2/4, 2/8, 4/4.
