Lemoine Charritat - La FM En Chansons Vol.1

Summary of This Method

Designed to support students in their first year of music training, this method offers a structured path of 25 lessons that promotes a natural progression, both reassuring for the child and practical for the teacher. The goal is to develop essential FM reflexes (listening, identification, rhythmic understanding) while maintaining a strong element of play and imagination.

The first part is organized around a musical tale, "The Children of Sybèle." This narrative thread serves as a guiding line and transforms solfège concepts into lively situations: the child more easily associates what they learn with a story, characters, and sound atmospheres. It is an excellent lever to support memorization, encourage participation, and establish a pleasant work routine.

The second part emphasizes sensory discoveries : the child learns by listening, observing, comparing, and experimenting. The method also gives significant space to creativity, thanks to an area provided for personal invention, to stimulate autonomy and musical expression from the earliest stages.

Dictations are offered in the form of games or riddles, making ear training more accessible and less intimidating. Finally, all songs are available on CD with violin and piano accompaniment, a valuable support to consolidate listening, sing accurately, and work on rhythm in real musical situations.
