INTRODUCTION

American music education is and has been very eclectic in its approaches. Music
education simply reflects Americas national character, which is a diverse blend of cultures,
philosophies, and academic practices. A basic tenet of educational philosophy and law is that
every child shall have access to free and appropriate education. This idea carries over into
music education, in that music should be for every childnot just for the gifted and talented
minority. There are many music educators whose philosophies embrace the idea of music for
all people. Among these music educators is mile-Henri Jaques-Dalcroze.
PHILOSOPHY
The Dalcroze philosophy centers on an idea that has been valued at various times
throughout history, that the synthesis of the mind, the body, and the emotions is fundamental
to all learning. Plato said in his Laws: "Education has two branches, one of gymnastics,
which is concerned with the body and the other of music, which is designed for the
improvement of the soul (Pennington, 1925, p. 9). Jaques-Dalcroze believed that the goal of
every musician is to be sensitive and expressive, and to express music through movement,
sound, thought, feeling, and creation.
Mead (1994) describes the Dalcroze philosophy in terms of four basic premises:
1. Eurhythmics awakens physical, aural, and visual images of music in the mind.
2. Solfge (sight-singing and ear training), improvisation, and eurhythmics together
work to improve expressive musicality and enhance intellectual understanding.
3. Music may be experienced through speech, gesture, and movement. These can
likewise be experienced in time, space, and energy.
4. Humans learn best when learning through the senses. Music should be taught through
the tactile, the kinesthetic, the aural, and the visual senses.
HISTORY
mile-Henri Jaques was born into a musical home on July 6, 1865. His Swiss parents
were living in Vienna, and young mile and his sister Hlne were supported in their artistic
education by their mother Julie, herself a fine music teacher and pianist. She had studied the
philosophy and teaching methods of educational reformer Heinrich Pestalozzi (1746-1827).
He was an early advocate of teaching through the senses and through experience, not merely
through the written word. He also supported the addition of vocal music instruction to school

curricula. Pestalozzi's influence on Madame Jaques was evident in her son as well. Since the
Dalcroze approach centers on the philosophy that experience in music is key to musical
understanding, it seems that both Pestalozzi and Dalcroze philosophies share common
ground (Collins, 1993). Childhood in the Jaques household was a time of singing, playing,
dancing, acting, and creating. Emile had a happy childhood and was described as "lively,
friendly, and even contemplative for a child" (Spector, 1990, p. 5).
In 1875, the family moved to Geneva. After several years in a private school, mile
Jaques enrolled at the Geneva Conservatory. At the age of eighteen, he had not yet decided
upon a career. The following year, 1884, he went to Paris where he studied drama at the
Comdie Franaise and music at the Paris Conservatory. Young Emile reveled in the artistic
atmosphere of the city. A passionate young actor and musician, he also found time to
compose and perform, singing as he accompanied himself on the piano.
While in Paris, mile Jaques became familiar with the teachings of Mathis Lussy (18281910), a piano instructor and writer. Lussy wrote extensively on the subject of expressive
musical performance and musical understanding (Caldwell, 1995). Through Lussy, mile
Jaques learned of the process of scholarly inquiry: to recognize problems; to approach them
scientifically; and to devise methods for their solution (Spector, 1990). mile Jaques
interests were shifting toward an emphasis in music, and after a visit with his family in
Geneva in the summer of 1886, he accepted the position of assistant conductor and chorus
master at the Thtre des Nouveaux in Algiers, North Africa. Algeria had been a French
colony since 1847, and consequently felt the influence of Western European culture. mile
Jaques underwent two changes while enjoying his first professional employment. Feeling that
his youthful appearance might inhibit his effectiveness as a leader, he began sporting the
mustache and goatee he would maintain for the rest of his life. This was also the time when
he added Dalcroze to his birth name Jaques. It seems that a composer of polkas in Bordeaux,
France, also had the name Emile Jaques. To avoid confusion, mile-Henri borrowed the
name Valcroze from a friend, changed the first letter to D, and was known thereafter as
Emile Jaques-Dalcroze (Spector, 1990).
After one season, Jaques-Dalcroze returned to Geneva in 1887 and, later that year, moved
to Vienna and enrolled at the Vienna Conservatory in the studio of Anton Bruckner (18241927). Their collaboration was brief: Bruckner insisted that "der dumme Franzose" study
harmony from the beginning, which Jaques-Dalcroze refused to do. Eventually Bruckner
attempted to have Jaques-Dalcroze thrown out of the conservatory, but was thwarted by the
faculty. Adolf Prosniz (1827-1917) invited Jaques-Dalcroze into his studio. It may have been
Prosniz who helped Jaques-Dalcroze focus his musical concentration and learn to study
music with greater depth (Spector, 1990). In spite of his clashes with Bruckner, JaquesDalcroze considered their association valuable. Bruckner's intolerance and authoritative style
were the antithesis of Jaques-Dalcroze's loving, playful nature. Perhaps this experience
helped to solidify his idea that an effective teacher is one who respects and educates the
whole child.
Spring of 1889 brought Jaques-Dalcroze's return to the Paris Conservatory and
composition study with Gabriel Faur. The twenty-four-year-old musician made the most of
his opportunities, moving in the same musical circles as Csar Franck and other artists of his
stature. Jaques-Dalcroze continued to compose an assortment of songs, ensembles, and
sketches based on the customs of the day.

Dalcroze

In 1892, Jaques-Dalcroze returned to the Geneva Conservatory, this time as a professor


of solfge. He began to question the teaching methods of the day and wonder what
improvements he could make. Careful observation of his students showed him that while the
students could be good musical technicians, they often did not hear or feel the nuances of the
music they were required to play. Just keeping a steady beat was often difficult for the
students. Jaques-Dalcroze began by getting the students up from their seats keeping a steady
beat by moving about the space. From there he added other fundamental qualities of singing,
breathing, walking at various tempi, skipping, and conducting with large gestures (Odom,
1998). He then added quality to the movement by asking them to physically react to the
improvised music that he was providing at the piano. These qualities included legato,
marcato, and staccato movements to complement the music. Cooperative work with a partner
allowed the students to experience timing, space, strength and weight, creativity, and
cooperative learning. By adding rhythmic movement to music, students acknowledged the
body as the first instrument of expression (Dutoit, 1971, p. 9). As instructor of solfge,
Jaques-Dalcroze believed that the compartmentalization of music courses was detrimental to
the pupils' true musical development (Carder, 1990). By combining solfge with rhythmic
movement and improvisation into rhythmic gymnastics, as he first called this work, JaquesDalcroze began to teach in a holistic style.
From 1903 to 1910, Jaques-Dalcroze actively pursued the development of a teaching
approach based on rhythmic gymnastics. However, his colleagues at the Geneva
Conservatory considered him something of a radical. The disapproval that met his
innovations was due partly to the conservatory faculty's unwillingness to condone his
experimental techniques, and to have its students become "performing monkeys" (Dutoit,
1971, p. 14). Another branch of resistance was from Genevan society itself. JaquesDalcroze's students dressed in short-sleeved tunics, with bare legs and feet, to allow free
movement in class. This was quite an affront to most Genevans, who lived according to the
rigid morality of the early twentieth century.
People outside of Geneva, however, were keen to adopt Jaques-Dalcrozes philosophy of
music and movement education. After a demonstration of his approach in Berlin, JaquesDalcroze received an offer to develop an institution for rhythmic study at an experimental
Garden City being designed north of Dresden, Germany. The premise of Hellerau was to be
a community that combined a planned industrial settlement with a school for artistic
development attended by children and adults. Between the period of 1910 and 1914, Hellerau
became a cultural center for music, theatre, and dance.
In partnership with Adolphe Appia, a noted theatre designer, Jaques-Dalcroze
supervised the construction of a school and performance space that was noted for its
architectural and theatrical innovationsinstead of a proscenium, the space was now open,
which brought the audience closer in to the performances. In addition, all components were
completely modular, which allowed the performers to move the stage in front of the audience
(Spector, 1990). During performances, students were not categorized as musicians, dancers,
or actors, but functioned as all three. In the summers of 1912 and 1913, audiences flocked to
Hellerau to see the student summer performance of Glucks Orfeo ed Euridice. These
demonstrations attracted notable artists and teachers from around the world: theatre
luminaries Konstantin Stanislavsky and George Bernard Shaw; dancers Mary Wigman,
Sergei Diaghilev and Rudolf von Laban; and musician Darius Milhaud (Martin, 1965).

Frego, Gillmeister, Hama & Liston

With the outbreak of World War I, the Hellerau school was closed and a permanent
school was founded in Geneva. Jaques-Dalcroze, recognizing the need for qualified
instructors, designed a professional training curriculum that enabled others to teach his
approach. Instructors continue to graduate in Dalcroze Eurhythmics from the Dalcroze
School in Geneva. These graduates have established training schools in many cities around
the globe (Dutoit, 1971). Jaques-Dalcroze continued writing, composing, and teaching in
Geneva until his death in 1950. Besides his teaching philosophy, he is also remembered as a
prolific composer of songs, operettas, and large-scale festival presentations.
Today, Dalcroze Eurhythmics is taught in music preparatory schools and is part of the
music theory and aural skills curriculum in conservatories and universities throughout North
America, Europe, Asia and Australia. Training in the approach is available in the United
States and in Europe. In addition, national and international professional organizations exist
to support eurhythmics teachers and those interested in pursuing the experience.
Jaques-Dalcroze wanted to create an approach to music education in which sensory and
intellectual experiences are fused into one neuromuscular experiencereinforcing the bodys
response to music (Caldwell, 1995). He felt that this would lead to performance at high
levels, beyond expectation (Carder, 1990). He believed that music education should center on
active involvement in musical experience. Technique and intellectual understanding are
important, but active experience must come first. Todays music education is based on the
"sound before the symbol" philosophy, a legacy of Jaques-Dalcroze and Pestalozzi before
him. Jaques-Dalcroze felt that students could practice and learn musical expression through
the active discovery of time, space, and energy. He believed that as music moves, so should
musicians; therefore, rhythm is elemental to this philosophy. Jaques-Dalcroze taught that
through rhythmic movement, musicians could experience symmetry, form, tension and
relaxation, phrasing, melody, and harmony. Experience should teach the musical elements.
DESCRIPTION
The Dalcroze approach, often identified as Eurhythmics, consists of three related
components. The first component is solfge, or ear training. Jaques-Dalcroze believed that
students must learn sophisticated listening skills and develop "inner hearing." Musicians
should be able to hear what they write and write what they hear. Music notation is
meaningless unless realized in real performance or in the imagination. Solfge is taught using
the fixed-do approach, based on the French system. Students develop a sensitivity to pitches,
their relation to each other, and to the tonal framework. What makes Dalcroze solfge unique
is that it is always combined with rhythm and movement, both locomotor and nonlocomotor.
The second component of a Dalcroze music education is improvisation. Improvisation
skills are developed sequentially and used in many ways. An instructor may play the piano
while students improvise movement, react spontaneously to verbal instructions, or change in
musical character. In the reverse, a student might improvise movement while another
accompanied with a drum, at the piano, or in song. Students soon develop skills to be able to
improvise musically and expressively on their own instruments. These spontaneous
performance activities are designed to improve response time and communication accuracy
(Mead, 1994).

Dalcroze

The final piece in the puzzle is the eurhythmics itself. Often considered the core of the
Dalcroze approach, eurhythmics was actually the last part to be developed. It is of equal
importance with rhythmic solfge and improvisation, but not more. The term eurhythmics is
from the Greek "eu," meaning good, and "rhythmy," meaning rhythm, proportion, and
symmetry. This idea embodies Dalcroze philosophy in two ways. First, human beings can
experience symmetry, balance, and rhythmic accuracy in music through symmetry, balance,
and rhythmic accuracy in movement. Second, the three components of the Dalcroze approach
(rhythmic solfge, improvisation, and eurhythmics) are interdependent and must be taught
together. The three complement and reinforce each other, providing a complete and balanced
musical education. Modern music educators and music therapists often identify the approach
as Eurhythmics, though all three facets are implied.
A typical introductory Dalcroze lesson involves activities or games that require total
mental and kinesthetic awareness. The lesson is presented in a somatic approach that allows
the participant to hear and react physically to the musical stimulus, which produces body
awareness and sensations. These physical sensations are transmitted back to the brain as
emotions and a more developed comprehension of the experience. It is common to begin a
Dalcroze lesson with walking to improvised music and responding to changes in tempo,
dynamics, and phrase in quick reaction games. Through these activities, the students begin to
understand how physical adjustments, such as energy and flow of the body weight, need to
occur in order to physicalize the music. Through these basic instructions, the teacher can
address musical elements such as pulse, beat, subdivision, meter, rhythm, phrase, and form.
Intermediate Dalcroze lessons can address polymeters, polyrhythms, canon, tension and
relaxation, breathing, conducting, counterpoint, and the interactions of anacrusis, crusis, and
metacrusis. Creativity is pervasive throughout the lesson. All classes are in a group setting
where the participants interact with partners or small groups to develop the nonverbal
communication skills and creativity necessary in music and movement.
Plastique Anime, or more often referred to as plastique, is the culminating experience in
a Dalcroze class. A plastique combines the skills addressed throughout the class, and from
previous rhythmic experiences, into a loosely based choreography that is both physically
expressive and musical. The students are provided with the basics of the requirements and
are asked to spontaneously create an interactive composition with the music. Someone who is
stepping into a Dalcroze studio at that moment would see music in motion and might not be
aware that the movement is spontaneous.
Modern music education benefits from Jaques-Dalcroze's teaching in many ways.
Today's teachers focus on active learning on the part of the students. This implies less
instruction and more experience for the students (Caldwell, 1993). Dalcroze philosophy also
places emphasis on musical behavior and expression, and their demonstration through
observable movement. Visible evidence of musical understanding through experience takes
some of the mystery out of the verbal definitions of musicality.
Another aspect of modern music education inherited from Jaques-Dalcroze is the
celebration of the individual. Teachers expect to provide appropriate musical experiences for
all their students. Creativity and imaginary play are encouraged through improvisation.
Music class is student oriented, with groups of students actively thinking about, listening to,
and analyzing and creating music (Johnson, 1993).

Frego, Gillmeister, Hama & Liston

Dalcroze exercises and pedagogical principles are easy to apply to most teaching
situations (Johnson, 1993). Multiage classrooms are becoming popular; Dalcroze exercises
can be adapted to suit a variety of student skill and experience levels. Dalcroze teacher
training allows instructors to become creative and flexible in the give-and-take of modern
education. The ability to be spontaneous in the classroom is valuable for all educators.
Teachers can follow through unexpected teaching opportunities with ease, and provide
students with a model of an adaptable and creative personality.
DALCROZE PHILOSOPHY
Jaques-Dalcroze intended for his approach to develop musical understanding through
eurhythmics and to help students develop immediate physical responsiveness to rhythmic
stimuli. Developing muscular rhythms and nervous sensibility would ultimately lead to the
capacity to discriminate even slight gradations of duration, time, intensity, and phrasing.
Through rhythmic movement, students would begin to think and express themselves more
musically. Initially, Jaques-Dalcrozes conception of eurhythmics was designed for the
education of conservatory musicians but soon expanded to the early musical education of
children, and to those with special needs. His philosophy grew to include his belief in the
development of a more musical society through rhythmic training in the schools (Campbell,
1991).
Jaques-Dalcroze believed the learning process involved direct sensory experience. He
advocated kinesthetic learning. Through movement, learning comes through experience in
addition to observation. Varied musical experiencesincluding movement, singing,
improvisation, music reading and writing, and playing instrumentsreinforce musical
learning (Johnson, 1993). Moreover, Jaques-Dalcroze believed that the way to health was
through a balance of mind, body, and senses. Many people have discovered that they can
improve and refine skills by rehearsing a combination of movements, first in the real body
and then imagining going through these movements with special fluidity in the kinesthetic
body. One can then return the same movement in the real body, allowing the improved flow
of kinesthetic rehearsal to carry over into actual movement (Abramson, 1980).
Jaques-Dalcroze placed special emphasis on child-centered learning. He developed a
particular interest in the natural development of the child (Johnson, 1993). Across ages,
Jaques-Dalcroze developed music teaching strategies that were age and ability-level
appropriate. His approach to music learning was broken down into experiences for the
primary grades, intermediate grades, and upper grades (Mead, 1994).

Philosophy of a Dalcroze-based lesson:
The human body is the first instrument
Rhythm bridges what we hear with what we do
Lessons integrate rhythmic skills with ear-training and improvisation
Music is abstractwe hear it moving through time
Movement is concretewe see it moving through space
Rhythmic movement manipulates time, space, and energy
Movement generates feelings, which form emotions
All lessons develop listening skills, reaction, focus, self-control, coordination,
cooperation, self-expression, imagination, and creativity

A Dalcroze-based lesson needs to contain:

Set-up with quick reaction games and focus activities


Provide opportunities for the instructor to see ability levels of all
Allow opportunities for participants to assess their own abilities
Introduce the theme through movementensuring success by all
Add sequential challenges in the way of games
Introduce nuances in music to measure participants reactions
Create improvisation opportunities for the participants
Introduce singing/chanting activities that respond to the music
Facilitate large and small group cooperative activities
Provide problem solving and creative development
Culminate the theme in a Plastique anime, using composed or improvised music
