Doug Goodkin: Learning Through Music and Art

This wonderful talk kicks off August’s theme of Creativity here on Resounding Power.

While Doug Goodkin uses music education for children as the means to talk about it, the essence of his talk can speak to all of us no matter our age or what creative outlet we would like to engage in.

“The first strange notion…it’s an inborn talent- you got it or you don’t have it.”

“Every person on the planet is a musical being”

Doug Goodkin is a music educator and proponent of Orff Schulwerk. His vision of an education that meets the imaginative, spiritual and humanitarian promise of each child was formed during three decades of teaching music.
