Suzuki Program

Suzuki instruction is offered for piano, violin, viola, cello and flute, for ages 4 and up. Developed by Dr. Shinichi Suzuki, this teaching method
reflects the natural processes of listening and imitation which children use in learning to speak. Suzuki students are therefore first taught basic
listening and playing skills before note reading is introduced. The program requires a deep level of commitment from both students and families.
