We are the music-makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems.
Ode, by Arthur O’Shaughnessy

Acknowledgments ix
We owe a debt of gratitude to the many individuals who inspired, encouraged, and helped
us along the way. Both of us were fortunate enough to study at the Franz Liszt Academy/
Kodály Pedagogical Institute in Hungary and at the Kodály Center of America with
world-renowned Kodály experts, many of whom were Kodály’s pupils and colleagues, who
shared their knowledge with us over many years. Among them were Erzsébet Hegyi, Ildikó
Herboly-Kocsár, Lilla Gábor, Katalin Komlós, Katalin Forrai, Mihály Ittzés, Klára Kokas,
Klára Nemes, Eva Vendrai, Helga Szabó, László Eősze, Peter Erdei, and Katalin Kiss. We are
especially indebted to Katalin Forrai for her support and encouragement for the research
contained in this publication. Our research is grounded in their many valuable insights and
research.
Special thanks are due to these individuals for critically reading portions of the man-
uscript, field-testing lesson plans, and insightful suggestions regarding this approach to
instruction and learning: Nick Holland, lower school music teacher at St. Paul’s School in
Baltimore, Maryland; Lauren Bain, elementary music specialist in the Northeast School
District of San Antonio, Texas; Georgia Katsourides, music specialist in the Lancaster City
School District, Pennsylvania; and Vivian Ferchill, retired music specialist from Round
Rock, Texas.
Special acknowledgment must be made to Patty Moreno, director of the Kodály
Certification Program at Texas State University, San Marcos, for her support and continued
encouragement of this project. We would also like to thank Holly Kofod and Lisa Roebuck
for their comments, which helped us bring this book to completion.
Many of our students in Kodály Certification Programs at Texas State University; the Austin
Independent School District, Austin Texas; Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee; and
the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York, have all helped us shape our approach
to instruction and learning presented herein. Kristopher Brown, José Pelaez, Rebecca Morgan,
Loren Tarnow, and Meredith Riggs deserve special mention. Gratitude is due Rebecca Seekatz
for her work on the game directions and the accompanying glossary of terms. Our many years
working together have not only contributed to the information we present but also served as
a continuing source of inspiration in working with the pedagogical processes we have shaped.
Regarding practical matters, we would like to thank our students at Millersville
University of Pennsylvania for helping us with initial drafts of the manuscript. Special
thanks are due Jamie Duca, for her technical and hands-on assistance.
This book would not be so complete in terms of pedagogy and educational content were
it not for readings and comments from Blaithín Burns, Kodály instructor at the Blue Coat
School. She provided invaluable assistance in the initial design of Kodály in the First Grade
Classroom and field-tested many teaching strategies. Richard Schellhas deserves thanks for
