Turkey for NEWS FROMTHE WORLD Christmas OF SPORTS musical training on the basis of his ideas. We are endeavouring to present this living practice by the introduction of the best examples, lectures of the most outstanding Hungarian and foreign music teachers. But it is far from us to create a sort of fixed curriculum. We keep in mind that one of the greatest advantages of this method is that anyone can add to it his own personality, the plus that comes from the individual talent, and can also pay attention to national characteristics.” “I was informed that the material recorded on these cassettes follows the structure of the educational system of Hungary.” “The first six cassettes do in fact introduce this educational system. The first reviews the methods used in kindergartens, the musical interest in, the spontaneous manifestations of, three year old toddlers evoked by singing, and the singing ability of six years old children, when they are about to go to school. The second cassette gives an insight of the musical literacy of grade 1—3 children, becoming adept at polyphonic singing. That is also time they begin to learn to play a musical instrument. The third cassette acquaints children between 9 and 12 years of age with masterpieces of music, the characteristic forms and tonality of various ages. Grade 7—8 general school children are already analysing etc. songs sung or played on some instrument on the fourth cassette.” “That is what has already breen completed. What will the other four cassettes contain?” “As I mentioned, six of the cassettes deal with musical education. The fifth one is about the musical education of 14—18 years old young people, students of general, music, or other high-schools, while the sixth is about teaching at the Academy of Music in Budapest. I mentioned earlier one of the sources available to us. The other is the collection of Kodály’s writings. Parts of varying extent were already quoted on the first six cassettes, and the sixth one reviews such an important work of his as 'Who is the good musician?’, the text of a lecture he gave in 1953.” “What will the last two cassettes contain?” “The seventh will be about education outside school, and the musical movements, the choir movements, dance-houses etc. The last is an attempt to survey the progress of the adaptation of the Kodály method in various countries and language territories. I should like to return once more to a matter I mentioned earlier. We are not only making a teaching aid, a hand-book for a home-course, but also film enjoyable by all, not only by the experts, based around the story of how children progress from simple folk-songs to the understanding of the musical world of Bartók and Kodály.” J.
