Dydaktyka uniwersytecka Beaty Dąbrowskiej. Przywołania chwil minionych

Abstract

<p>The article presents the teaching work of Beata Dąbrowska (1960-2016) at Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, Institute of Music. During over 30 years of her work at the University, Beata Dąbrowska – a conductor and teacher – educated several dozen graduates. As part of her teaching duties, she taught courses in choral conducting, reading the scores, vocal band, methodology of conducting vocal band, and in choir and choral literature. The classes in these subjects focused on choral music, which she liked the most. This text presents the methods and the style of her work during classes in choral conducting, reading the scores and choral literature. The description of her teaching, including, inter alia, manual and technical aspects of conducting, repertoire and interpretative issues, has been complemented with the remembrances by her students: graduates of the Institute of Music: Milena Lis and Izabela Urban and students – Kinga Rdzak and Jagoda Pondel. These memories confirm that Professor Dąbrowska – a person of great personal culture – conducted her classes with extreme calm and self-control. She was a demanding teacher but at the same time she created a warm and cordial atmosphere.</p>
