Suzuki "Talent Education"

"Mother tongue method" music is taught like when you learn a native language, by rote. Use of imitation, repetition, and observation.

Orff Schulwerk Method

"learning by doing" approach to teaching music. based on what is most natural to children: singing, moving, chanting, creating, improvising, and playing instruments. Every child participates and experiences all aspects of music in a noncompetitive atmosphere. Begins with speech (speech is tied to rhythm=rhythm is strongest musical element) called speech rhythm. Speech Rhythms: transferred to the body in the form of body percussion (snap, clap, patchen (patting legs), and stamping) Uses special Orff instruments (unpitched and barred) allow students to be creative, which leads to improvisation and composition.
