Proposed merge with Colourstrings
editThis appears to be a variant of the Kodály method. An exhaustive search for sources has come up with nothing that covers it in any detail – it isn't in Grove, it gets only passing mentions in The Strad. It can be adequately covered with a sentence in the main article. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 21:16, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- This generated a wholly meaningless redirect. This page, its target, gives not the faintest hint of what Colourstrings might be. The article makes no mention of Colourstrings, colour, color, string*, violin or instrument* in any relevant sense. There's no clue what it's all about, just a smartarse "well it's all Kodaly innit" assumption but again with no evidence: it was a lack of sources that led to the article's suppression so I see no justification for replicating it here. It would have been far better to delete the Colourstrings article than to do this. I am tempted to argue for its deletion now but I can't be arsed and instead I have redirected it to Géza Szilvay which at least has some obvious relevance and mentions the redirect subject, which I feel is not unimportant.

Colourstrings is effectively a method book series for Kindergarten, Piano and Strings. The organisation provides teacher training on how to use the books, which I think you have to do to advertise as a Colourstrings teacher. I agree it could be merged into this page.

Page title
editKodaly isn't really a method. It's generally considered to be a methodology/approach so the title should be "Kodaly Methodology". Is there any way to correct this? Emo mz (talk) 11:55, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

See Also - Waldorf Education
editWhy is there a see also to Waldorf_education in this article? From Google apparently Waldorf schools incorporate Kodaly method, but Kodaly isn't in anyway based on Waldorf or Anthroposophy.
If anything there should be a link from the Waldorf article here, which there is not. --Klaun (talk) 21:06, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
Hand Signs
editEgads! No mention of the use of the hand signs in Close Encounters of the Third Kind? I'll have to fix this! :) PurpleChez (talk) 22:22, 17 March 2025 (UTC)
