Music educators: watch the first webinar part of The International Ukulele Teaching Symposium, “The Toronto Ukulele Project: The Doane Ukulele Legacy Lives On,” today on NAMMFoundation.org. nammfoundation.org/articles/…
@melaniedoane was honoured this week to join her dad, J Chalmers Doane, for a discussion about the unique advantages of #ukulele as a tool for music education and to share some memories of her own music education in Halifax, NS.
#musiceducation @tdsb @HRCE_NS @NAMMFoundation
The Doane Ukulele Method, which Chalmers introduced 50 years ago in the Halifax school system, enriched the lives of a generation of kids and became a model for ukulele programs across Canada and in Hawaii – and is still thriving now with Uschool!
“The Toronto Ukulele Project: The Doane Ukulele Legacy Lives On” is live today and kicks off the International Ukulele Teaching Symposium from the internationally renowned NAMM Foundation. Check it out! bit.ly/2Ptyoqq
