Suzuki Strings
Suzuki Strings students can begin observing as young as 3 ½ years old. The Suzuki method of instruction is based on the premise that any skill can be learned when broken into small, manageable steps. All the same principles of Suzuki teaching apply to Suzuki Strings with an emphasis on tone, aural skills and memorization, playing in groups, and having fun! All children are free to move at their own rate of progress.
Throughout the year we have private lessons and group classes, music theory, recitals, community outreach programs, parent workshops, juries, and workshops.
Instruction is available on violin, viola, cello, and harp.
New Students: Get started by completing a New Student Placement Form.
