Shulamith Feingold passed away at the end of August. She loved Eurhythmics and taught it in the Music Education Department of Levinsky College of Education in Tel-Aviv. During the last six years she was the head of the Music Education Department, therefore she did not teach as much as before. (by Ora Goraly)

Mrs Elizabeth Vanderspar,
our eminent English colleague died away on May 3rd, at the age of 89. Internationally known, Mrs Vanderspar was much appreciated for her teaching and her fine personality, and she will be missing to many former students and colleagues, who will remember her with tenderness.

THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR MUSIC EDUCATION (ISME) will hold its next conference in Beijing from 1 to 6 August 2010. http://www.isme.org/2010/ Proposals to present papers and workshops close on October 1st 2009. http://www.isme.org/2010/calls_presenters.html

Judy Thonell, secretary of ISME. She is encouraging people from Orff, Kodaly and Dalcroze to submit proposals for Beijing 2010 by clicking on ‘Other’ and stipulating one of these methods/approaches. Can you please let your members know? We are looking at creating an ‘Active Music Making’ strand or forum and if approved officially by the board, we will be able to have meetings etc the day before the conference and our own room (large space for movement and plenty of Orff instruments), our own small committee etc. This should benefit all presenters of active music methods who require space.

A collaboration between the Hellerau European Center of the Arts and the Carl Maria von Weber Music Conservatory, Dresden
Artistic director: Prof. Christine Straumer Organisation: Isolde Matkey tristan production

The thematic emphasis for this year’s 10th International Rhythmics Workshop will be Body Awareness in Contemporary Music. Lectures, workshops, presentations and a World Rhythmics Café® will all be offered to encourage joint collaboration in the areas of improvisation, composition and performance. Here is an overview of this year’s program:

FORUM FOR BOTH PROJECTS AND WORKSHOPS

Lectures will be given on the following topics: “Body Awareness in Contemporary Music” “100 Years - Rhythmics” and the “10th Year Anniversary of the International Rhythmics Workshop”.

A number of case study presentations will present a variety of rhythmics projects ranging from children/youth projects, socio-cultural projects to projects for other target groups. These presentations will last approximately 20 minutes and will be made ‘live’ with descriptive commentary or via video.
In addition, workshops will offered and led by experienced rhythmics practitioners. The following topics will be offered: Rhythmics, Choreography, Improvisation and Composition

PROJECT IDEAS FOR 2011

This year there will be an opportunity to present an 8-minute presentation with the intention of performing this idea during the Festival Week in 2011. Rhythmic groups (either students or rhythmic groups) are invited to create a contemporary rhythmics piece, original choreographic concept or a project documentation on the topic of “Rhythmics 100 - 100 Years of the Festival Hall Hellerau” in order to enter this competition.
Composers will provide the connection between contemporary composition and rhythmics by participating in a collaborative creative process. The composers Dieter Schnebel and Manos Tsangaris have already agreed to collaborate.
A jury will make a selection of rhythmics groups. The chosen groups will develop their concept over a period of a year and present the results of their creative process during the Festival Week 2011.
