Carl Orff Canada aims to support COC chapters and music educators in building meaningful connections. COC advocates for access and quality music education for all learners to promote awareness and understanding of the creative and collaborative Orff-Schulwerk approach.

The Research

Supporting Music Education in Canada

Does your school have a music program? Do the students have access to a music classroom? Does your school have a music specialist to deliver the music curriculum?

A national survey was conducted in 2019 to reflect the current state of music education in Canada. Click the map above to access the full report (infographics included).

Choral Canada and their partners are proud to present #benefitsofsinging, a project by the Choral Canada Advocacy Committee. Click the link above to access the research and resources that illustrate the  psychological, physical, spiritual, social and emotional benefits of singing.

Carl Orff Canada proudly supports #SpeakUpforSinging and the Singing in Canadian Schools: COVID-19 Impact Survey.
