	Music Education Webpage - Kodaly Summer Workshops
		The Kodály Institute of Texas is committed to providing superior instruction based upon the philosophy and teachings of Zoltan Kodály (1882-1967), a Hungarian composer, educator, and ethnomusicologist who, with his students, created an internationally acclaimed system of teaching music applicable to studies from infancy through adulthood.
