カール・オルフ
In 1923 Carl Orff met Dorothee Günther while working at a theater in Munich. Günther "believed that most students did not get enough chances to do art and music and movement activities". Because of her extensive background in gymnastics and the arts Gunter was able to open the Gunter-Schule in 1924. Even though Carl Orff never worked with the students of the Gunter-Schule directly, this was the first institution to teach what would later be known as the Orff Approach.
