Kodály of the Ozarks was formed in 2004 by Rene Spencer, Becky Moore, and Jane Phillips to serve the music teachers and children of the Springfield, Missouri, area. In just a few short years, the chapter has grown under Rene's leadership to over twenty extremely active members in southwest Missouri and north central Arkansas. Each year, KOZ hosts a children's honor choir in the spring, a two-week summer certification seminar, a fall workshop during which chapter members present their favorite lessons and play parties, and a spring workshop that typically features nationally- or internationally-recognized Kodály experts. Please consider joining us at any or all of these events. More information can be found regarding dates, time, locations, and costs by clicking the "Events" button to the left. Membership is
open to any practicing or aspiring music educator or supporter of
music education who believes, as did Zoltán Kodály,
that "music belongs to everyone!" Please visit the The best way to learn to begin using the Kodály approach to music education is to attend certification training in the summer. KOZ, in association with Evangel University, offers the two-week seminars each July. For more information, check out the "Training" page on our site by clicking the appropriate button to the left.
