Where to buy the Music Mind Games book

The book, Music Mind Games, by Michiko Yurko is published by Alfred Publishing Co., Inc. and is available on this website and in book stores and music stores worldwide. It was originally published by Warner Bros. Publications in 1992.

From the back cover:

 

Nineteen years of game play testing across the continent from Hawaii to Newfoundland and Puerto Rico to Alaska plus three years of writing has produced Music Mind Games by Michiko Yurko, an extraordinary book full of sensational games for learning music theory and reading. Thanks to a wide variety of colorful, hands-on materials, sequential pedagogical concepts, and mind stimulating games, music theory has become a fascinating subject. It is now easily within reach of the youngest of music students or enticing enough to entertain adults at any level.

 

 

In Part One, Michiko shares her philosophy of joyful learning in a nurturing, unhurried, yet animated environment of students working together. They become totally involved in playing exciting games that are cleverly designed so that everyone wins. This is truly an innovative concept in education.

 

 

In Part Two, Michiko guides you through 24 chapters and over 200* games which help students discover all aspects of music theory and reading concepts. Students with solid music theory skills become well rounded musicians. The organization and inventiveness of this visionary book will keep any teacher brimming with ideas for years and years.

Music Mind Games will be enjoyed by students in private studio programs, public and private schools, kindergartens, church choirs, camps and in private homes. Beginning through advanced concepts are creatively presented. There are 575 photographs and over 325 illustrations to guide even the nonmusical teacher through this imaginative teaching technique.

*the number of games is now at 300

Note from Michiko: "Even though I have made many improvements and added new games since 1992, the concepts in this book are still valuable and I continue to use many of the games. Interested teachers and parents can continue to use this book until I finish a revision. However, due to work on the new materials and this website, that project has been delayed. The easiest way to learn about new games and concepts is to attend a teacher training workshop, observe student classes at workshops, watch the videos on this website, play the new games and materials included in the Puppy Packet."

Besides this website, Music Mind Games is available at these fine online retailers.

What I wouldn't give to have a debate with you about this. You just say so many things that come from nowhere that I'm pretty sure Id have a fair shot. Your blog is great visually, I mean people wont be bored. But others who can see past the videos and the layout wont be so impressed with your generic understanding of this topic.

The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms is the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that allows developers to implement rich content and 'skin' the site in such a way that with very little effort one would never notice what it is making the site tick all without limiting content and effectiveness.
