About

Music made together heals earth and humankind.

The KSBC is a branch of the Kodály Society of Canada and seeks to uphold the vision of our national society.

In addition, we strive to bring together a community of musician educators in British Columbia who share the vision of a universal music education based on the principles of Zoltan Kodály and best practices of Kodály-inspired educators from the 20th and 21st century.

We seek to discuss, discover, and enact the best quality music education for our current context in British Columbia and in Canada.
