Clap and rhythm

Clap and rhythm

After the arrival of Degge couple, we organised a music lesson for them in the Community House of Pécs today.

Mostly the members of group 1 and 2 participated in the programme and Balázs from group 3 helped us, who is really keen on music and English language.  David was talking about the history of music to us and then we tried to answer the question what music is. We learned about different musical instruments and about instrumental music. David showed us footage about his and his colleagues’ work and we could see and hear how they use different things to make sound like glasses, triangle and many other objects. We were invited to a shared rhythm exercise. We build up a clap concert from polyphonic claps. We had an interesting and nice ninety minute lesson together where not only rhythm and music but also English were practiced. The open and empathetic personalities of David and Abby encouraged us to speak freely and fluently in English. The day was closed with a minor guitar concert.

Thank you for your visit!
