Suzuki Method Violin lessons for children and adults
“As always, I admire your students’ professionalism both musically and with their etiquette!!! Additionally, your whole vision of pairing the pieces with recipes was brilliant. You always present a fun, invigorating, enjoyable recital!!! (I’m jealous you weren’t my piano teacher)
Lisa Edwards, concert pianist, collaborator and coach
Studio News!
Annual Formal Recital is coming June 15th! Come listen , imagine, then taste the music as performers write Stories and Rhythm Recipes about their piece, and bring their Special Recipe to grace the Reception Table!
The 2018 Practice-a-thon results are fantastic! Everyone uploaded practice samples from their “daily discoveries!” for us to share and learn from. The grand prize, created by master knitter Celia Katz, was the Philip Glass Troll complete with pocket and a detachable sweater!

The Monthly Practice Tip:
DO MORE THAN NONE!
Dare yourself to a Five Minute Focus!
Keep your case open, or hang your instrument on the wall. Half the problem is just getting started, or thinking that you don’t have enough time at the time.
