Why Suzuki Piano?
The Suzuki piano curriculum is an accessible, classical music-based method. This curriculum offers training for the ear, sight-reading, chord study, foundational technique, and deeper understanding of musical patterns. It is an auditory-based method of teaching piano that emphasizes listening and repetition. The method is based on the idea that children learn to play music in a similar way to how they learn their native language. The curriculum includes:
Music books: A series of books that increase in difficulty as the child improves.
Parent involvement: Parents are invited to attend lessons with their child and play the recorded music at home.
Private lessons: Children receive private lessons in addition to group classes.
Music theory: Children learn music theory.
Group classes: Children play in groups and have fun while learning.
Recitals: Children perform in recitals.
