Go for Bronze is a Kodály-based music programme which has been developed by NYCOS focussing on developing musicianship skills through pitch and rhythm games as well as singing-based activities. It is used in schools and NYCOS Regional choirs by children as young as 7 years old. This project is available to P3 – 5 children in Renfrewshire Primary Schools.
It is recommended by many instrumental teachers as a resource for pupils beginning the music reading process.
Traditional folk songs and games are used to introduce concepts and the children are involved in fun and practical activities throughout. With very little adaptation, the programme can be used in settings with additional support needs. The focus is musical learning through play – the children will play singing/rhythmic games and musical concepts are derived from the game and song and made conscious to the child as they explore the early stages of musical literacy.
