Suzuki Violin:

Dr. Shinichi Suzuki was a violinist who developed a method for children to learn to play an instrument in the same way they learn to speak. This "Mother Tongue" approach is based on Dr. Suzuki's observation that children have a remarkable ability to speak and understand their native language at a very young age. Suzuki reasoned that children can easily learn music through this same process of listening and repetition. This class will study the concepts, philosophy and approach of the Suzuki method thorough study of Books 1 and 2 of the Suzuki Violin School.
