First Steps in the Development of a Pictorial Method For the Initial Stages of Bassoon Teaching

Esther Infanzón García

About this exposition

We always learn to speak before we learn to write our mother tongue. Naturally, a child from an early age seeks to express himself by producing sounds, which leads me to ask myself: why don't we do the same with music?, why isn't more importance given to the natural process of musical expression itself than to the theoretical learning of music? Through the first steps of a pictorial method that I propose in this work, I intend to help change the way we take our first steps with music using my instrument, the bassoon. For this, I would take kodaly and other methods as examples of efficient music education.
