Music was the life of Hungarian Zoltán Kodály. As a child around 1890, he learned how to play the violin. By 1906, he had written a thesis on Hungarian folk song. But public success was not to be achieved until 1923. As the decades passed, his unique, ground-breaking methods of music education were being praised and adopted by scholars of leading universities as well as individual music instructors. Even though Kodály’s life came to an end in 1967, his principles of music education live on and continue to be highly regarded worldwide. From August 8 through 13, the 23rd International Kodály Symposium & Music Festival will take place right here in Camrose at the University of Alberta Augustana Campus. Local and international presenters will deliver insight and research on music education for classroom, choral and studio. Workshops and papers will be of benefit to the pursuit and progress of music for every age group. Guests from around the world will converge in Camrose to engage in and reflect upon the remarkable insights and philosophy of this esteemed music mentor.
