Course Content (Syllabus)
In the theoretical part of the course, the basic goal is students to acquire the theoretical musical knowledge that is required in order -first of all- to become aware of the importance of singing as a means of expression for children. Also study the factors that are crucial for using correctly the voice and moreover the techniques that are used in singing and its teaching. In the practical-workshop part of the course the main goal is -based on the taught respective theory and by practicing- students to be able to sing correctly (from the score) songs for children and to be able to accompany them in an instrument. In detail: Introduction to the basics of Harmony, to make it possible to use simple harmonic accompaniment to the songs. Exercising transporting the melody of a song to a different key (suitable for the children's voices). Rhythmic score reading and counting with hand movements depending on the time signature. Rhythmic and melodic Solfege. Work with the Kodály hand signs to achieve accuracy in pitch in singing and with the Kodály rhythmic syllables to achieve accuracy in rhythmic reading. Exercises to develop the skills to accompany the song with an instrument individually and in duets, as well as doing the same with specific children's songs. Repertoire building. Introduction to the teaching of individual and group singing. Combined from theory and praxis: Studying the content of the official music textbooks and the songs anthology book for primary schools, students have to choose and present a lesson and its activities that is related to voice and/or singing. Alternatively teaching a song to the class.
