Playful Audiations

This 52nd episode is my last, at least for now. I hope I've empowered you to engage in music play in your home. If you have ideas for future projects, or questions from your own play experiences, please share them or just keep in touch, through playfulaudiations.com. Thanks for joining me on this journey.

This song is named for a very special colleague I’ve been honored to watch blossom into a successful, independent music educator.

We're nearing the end of this podcast series and that's got me feeling a little, well, grumpy. What better way to brighten your mood than through music play?

This week's episode is one of my favorite songs for fostering creativity and improvisational play.

In this episode, named for my mentors, I mention Hoberman Spheres and STOMP. After listening to the episode, I encourage you to check them out!

Dr. Edwin Gordon, the musician and researcher who published his theory of how young children develop musically, often improvised melodies while teaching about his work. I wrote this one down while studying with him and I'm pleased to share it this week.

This week has aquatic-themed play, but also takes some time to dig into tonality again.

Today's a day to play with stop & go!

This beautiful tune is great for flow, but I'll also talk about developmental concepts in this episode.

Welcome to summer! Today's tune can help get you going on those lazy, slow mornings, and there are lots of ways to play with it, so you won't stay slow for long.
