Simpson College Music Education Workshops
The music department at Simpson College offers two outstanding music education workshops 
for music education students and area music teachers each year. Nationally recognized clinicians in music education present workshops in the field of music education once each semester. These gifted clinicians bring for our students and area classroom teachers a variety of approaches in music education. New pedagogical techniques, ethnomusicology, movement, folk music and instrumental techniques, brain development, and elementary choral techniques are but a few of the existing topics. Dress comfortably for movement, as the clinicians will ask for your participation!
