“In every part of the ancient world, music and musical instruments served magically on ‘therapeutic’ purposes rather than aesthetic ones” (Bancroft 4).
“Musical Aspects of language as tone, pauses, stress, and timbre are sonorous units into which phonemes, the consonant and vowel sounds of language, are later placed” (Mora )
Knowing the impact of music on language learning, we decided to keep our hands-on music.
In this pandemic situation, to make language learning enjoyable and a lifelong lasting experience, we decided to continue our ‘Learning Finnish Through Songs 2’ project.
We achieved our goals with dedicated participants from more than ten different nationalities. The certificates are sent to participants.
Thanks to all.
