The word "audiation" means “to think music.” For music teachers who incorporate audiation and its accompanied Music Learning Theory in their teaching, it is a way to help students deepen their musical understanding from the very beginning of training. Music Learning Theory is a comprehensive approach for musical learning, based on an extensive body of research and practical field testing by Edwin E. Gordon. In this episode, Christine discusses audiation and Music Learning Theory with pianist and music educator Siliana Chiliachka, who uses Music Learning Theory and Audiation in her own piano studio. TOPICS INLUDE: What is Audiation? What is Music Learning Theory? What is missing in modern music/piano instruction What a audiation-based piano lesson looks like How to present Music Learning Theory to parents and students How to learn more about the Music Learning Theory method For links to more information about Music Learning Theory and Audiation, visit our shownotes on our website: https://frostedlens.com/musicians-vs-the-world/f/audiation-and-music-learning-theory-with-siliana-chiliachka
I had a wonderful conversation with Krista Jadro, Music Learning Theory Specialist and Founder of Music Learning Academy, for this episode.
Here is the little teaser of The Piano Pod's latest episode with a guest, Krista Jadro: Music Learning Theory Specialist & Founder of Music Learning Academy, with a guest co-host, Siliana Chiliachka: Pianist/Educator and MLT Specialist.I had a wonderful conversation with Krista Jadro, Music Learning Theory Specialist and Founder of Music Learning Academy, for this episode.
Lutoslawski and Stravinsky - composers mentionedJoey Alexander - very young master jazz pianistWhat is audiation? https://giml.org/mlt/audiation/Partial Synthesis is the third skill in a sequence of traditional Music Learning Theory in which students are taught to recognize and identify sameness and difference between groups of patterns. See more in the book linked below.Learning Sequences in Music, by Edwin E. Gordon, is the "bible" for learning Music Learning Theory. MLT is a theory of how music is learned, including stages and types of audiation, Skill and Content Learning Sequence, and Learning Sequence Activities, put together in a formal structure to teach audiation in the way that children naturally learn to be musical. On the other hand, teaching note reading on the staff, a very typical music teaching method, violates MLT and the product of such is out-of-tune playing, poor expression, and a lack of rhythmic style. Technical instruction like this doesn't necessarily lead to audiation.Any music learning with contextual understanding that has ever happened in the world is a function of (small case) mlt. How people learn to audiate outside of the formal codification of Gordon's theory of how music is learned.Contact us: teachmusictokids@gmail.com
Episode 1.3: In this episode, Krista defines what is means to understand music through audiation, as defined by Dr. Edwin E. Gordon. Make sure to listen through to the end to step into Krista's piano lessons and hear three activity examples with a student: resting tone, patterns, and improvisation.
No programa de hoje, a gente bate mais um papo sobre Educação Musical, e a abordagem da vez é a Music Learning Theory, ou MLT! Pra saber tudo sobre o assunto, Flávio, Tody e Tück conversam com a educadora musical e certificada em MLT Nadja Lopes, que explica um pouquinho de como essa abordagem criada pelo americano Edwin Gordon pode trazer novas perspectivas na educação. Descubra o que o aprendizado da música tem em comum com o aprendizado da linguagem, como nosso cérebro responde aos estímulos musicais e aprenda sobre o conceito de audiação!

Today we’re joined by one of the leading Gordon-trained music educators and author of Music Moves for Piano, Marilyn White Lowe. Music Moves is an innovative approach to teaching piano, which from the very beginning incorporates all of the “inner skills” we focus on here at Musical U, such as improvising, playing by ear, composing your own music and collaborating with other musicians. Music Moves uses Dr. Edwin Gordon’s Music Learning Theory, which codifies how the human brain learns music, as the basis for designing how musicianship can most effectively be taught. “Music Learning Theory” has previously been featured on Musicality Now, most notably in our interview with Professor Cynthia Crump-Taggart, President of the Gordon Institute for Music Learning. We’ve discussed several times on past episodes the idea of audiation, which is a word Edwin Gordon originally coined. Audiation has detail and depth that goes far beyond simply “imagining music in your head”. Marilyn brings a wonderful new perspective to audiation for us, as educators applying it directly in the context of teaching an instrument. Drawing on ideas from Orff, Suzuki, Dalcroze, and Kodály, The Music Moves For Piano method incorporates listening, singing, movement, audiation, and notation, on top of the pure piano technique skills - and as you’ll hear in this conversation it develops the student into a fully-fledged and well-rounded musician - not just a piano player. In this conversation we talk about: • Why clapping, tapping or walking may not be the best ways to internalise the pulse and the rhythmic patterns of music. • The specific rhythm and pitch frameworks which give students the "vocabulary" they need to improvise and be creative in music. • Why the age of 9 is a turning point in music learning, and what that means for adult music learners. A lot of the concepts we talk about here at Musical U are brought to life in this conversation. If you’ve ever wondered what it would look like to learn an instrument in a way that truly incorporates musicality training, rather than having it be off in its own separate area, this episode will inspire your music learning.

In Episode 2 of Music Learning Academy Presents, Sarah Boyd discusses growing her early childhood music program, Music Together, with Keyboard Games classes. Keyboard Games is part of the Music Moves for Piano method, which applies Edwin E. Gordon's Music Learning Theory to piano instruction. The Keyboard Games Books A and B are designed for beginners of any age, and work extremely well as a transition from early childhood music classes to formal instruction.
On this episode of Music Learning Academy Presents, Hannah Mayo discusses transitioning her piano studio to Music Moves for Piano, a piano method by Marilyn Lowe, that applies Edwin E.
