Courses for Hungarian music teachers:

Another very important part of the Institute's activities has been to organise in-service training courses for Hungarian music teachers. Besides the summer seminars the Institute offers occasional short courses for Hungarian music teachers working in different types of schools. These have included summer courses, week-end workshops and one-week courses for primary school teachers, music primary school teachers, conservatory teachers and choral conductors. The subjects (solfege, theory of music, choral conducting, methodology, music literature, etc.) in these courses are designed to develop participants' musical skills and extend their knowledge of specialized subjects and pedagogy.
