Since its formation in 2024, the Orff Schulwerk Association Ireland aims
to develop the use of the Orff-Schulwerk approach in an Irish context,
drawing from the well of Irish culture and to promote Orff-Schulwerk music and movement education practice in Ireland.

 

Our motto 'can, abair, bog, seinn agus praoi' is Irish for 'sing, say, move, play'.
In Irish, there are different words for different types of play.
'Seinn' means to play an instrument. 
'Spraoi' means playin games and playfulness.

 

The 'Orff Schulwerk Association Ireland' organises and provides Orff music workshops with nationally and internationally renowned Orff practitioners.
Members of the assiciation can meet regularly at our online Orff Cafés to exchange their Orff teaching experiences, ask questions and get inspired.
