German Pronunciation for Musicians workshop

11/11/2019

0 Comments

 
In October, Abi was invited to give a workshop on German pronunciation to A-level Music students at Hereford Sixth Form College. Awareness of, and receptivity to, different languages is extremely important for musicians and something the Music department was keen to promote.
Abi spent two sessions working with year 12 students on general guidelines for pronunciation, as well as looking more closely at some of the specific musical terms the students would be likely to come across in the course. They rose admirably to the challenge, even getting their tongues around the deceptively difficult to pronounce Rohrau (Haydn's birthplace)!

The feedback from the students was good and we look forward to collaborating with HSFC again in future.
"I thought the German workshop was helpful as I now have a better understanding of German, which is incredibly helpful when reading music expression instructions. Abi’s PowerPoint made the learning process that much easier. She was patient when we had to repeat back, and offered us help and guidance when we needed it." ​(Grace FA, HSFC student)
