Welcome to AOSA!
The American Orff-Schulwerk Association is a professional organization of educators dedicated to the creative music and movement approach developed by Carl Orff and Gunild Keetman.
Our mission is:
• to demonstrate the value of Orff Schulwerk and promote its widespread use;
• to support the professional development of our members; and
• to inspire and advocate for the creative potential of all learners.
Advocacy efforts come together for Music Education organizations, including AOSA. The American Orff-Schulwerk Association is pleased to announce its affiliation with The Music Education Policy Roundtable. Read about it HERE.
