The Lyre Association of North America is delighted to open registration for our 2019 summer lyre conference:
MovementSoundMusic - Working with New Instruments in Pedagogy and Therapy with both Children and Adults, towards Developing a New Future-Bearing Listening.
The conference will take place in Kimberton, Pennsylvania, from July 1-5.
After the international lyre conference in Holland last summer, this years conference will focus on a larger theme connected to our work out of the Movement for Musical Renewal. This conference is intended for all ages and abilities, including beginners, and we also warmly invite the participation of older children and teens as well as adults with special needs. The conference will be very much a hands-on event with no previous musical experience required!
Our conference will be led by Veronika Roemer, professional violist, pianist, lyrist, and Seminar Music Teacher at The Camphill School, Glenmoore, PA. She also teaches musical renewal in China, Hungary, and North America. Veronika has spent many years studying sound and its healthy cultivation for both children and adults. She is eager to share with us the results of her work with international colleagues on this subject as well as her own experiences as a lyrist and multi-faceted musician and teacher.
Together, we will work with metal instruments (gongs, rods, cymbals, and others), stringed instruments (lyres, including pentatonic and Bordun lyres, psalteries, chrottas), wind instruments (C-flutes, pentatonic flutes, ocarinas), and percussion instruments (drums, rattles, etc.). Our work will be based on books by Reinhild Brass (Hörwege entdeckenI) and Gerhard Beilharz (Musik in Pädagogik und Therapie and Erziehen und heilen durch Musik), which focus on new methods in music pedagogy and therapy, as is possible with these new instruments.
Each day during morning and afternoon full group sessions, Veronika will lead us in activities/games for listening and improvisation, most of which will involve movement. (Please bring eurythmy slippers or other soft shoes.) In addition, we will have small group sessions, so that all participants will have a chance to do specialized work with metal, wind, and string instruments. We will also have different ability levels of lyre groups each afternoon as well as a daily singing session. Youth and adults with special needs will have their own lyre groups. If the registration numbers are sufficient, the youth may have their own program in the afternoon, which would include recreational activity. Adults with special needs will also have their own ensemble work in the afternoon. On Thursday evening, July 4th, we will offer a public presentation of our work to local residents, family, and friends.
Camphill VillageKimberton Hills, a beautiful rural community in southeastern Pennsylvania, is a perfect location for such a conference. In addition to the comfortable indoor spaces where we will play, there are lovely walking paths where one often meets the friendly and welcoming village residents. There is also an onsite café where we will have our lunches and suppers each day. Some lodging will also be available in the village in addition to hotels, Airbnbs, and private homes in the area.
LANA's 2019 Summer Conference promises to be a unique and rewarding opportunity to deepen our innate musical capacities, thereby strengthening our sense of what it means to be truly human. Please plan to join us for this special conference from Monday afternoon, July 1, through Friday morning, July 5 at Camphill VillageKimberton Hills, in beautiful southeastern Pennsylvania.
