The Forest of Story and Sound: Building Social Learning with Music and Literature

As spaces for this session are limited, priority will be given to registrants on a first-come-first-served basis. We regret that we will not accept walk-ins if the session is full. Please pre-register for the workshop.

This workshop combines literature and music education, teaching music as not only an art form but as a vehicle for coexistence, listening, and identity building. Via Hutan Musik and its diverse cast of characters, explore a vibrant forest built around seven instrument families, the sound values they contain—pitch, rhythm, tone color, dynamics and articulation, phrasing and structure, style and character, and performance—and the collaboration and empathy that they foster. The project connects children’s literature with decades of real pedagogical experience, offering a unique framework for integrating sound, story, and social learning.
