About Suzuki learning
Suzuki learning is recognized as a great way to build poised and successful students, wonderful musicians and family memories. Parents will learn along with the children and teach them at home using easy and fun techniques to instill love and self-discipline as well as musical knowledge. We will learn our technique slowly and precisely while we listen to our recordings and play our pieces on keyboard, then learn the pieces carefully watching our videotapes, teacher, parents, and class friends. Learn more about the Suzuki approach at https://suzukiassociation.org/about/suzuki-method/
We'll branch out with fiddle pieces, holiday songs, Suzuki institutes, and private and public performances. We love to perform! Visitors are welcome, let Kari know beforehand at kari.gunderson@hotmail.com
Limited sign-ups are available. Visitors and families exploring Suzuki violin study are welcome to email kari.gunderson@hotmail.com to arrange a time to get together.

This is a wonderful opportunity to spend a Saturday with other Suzuki people in our community while we take fun classes with nationally-known teachers. Our dear friend Carol Waldvogel of Northshore Suzuki Strings has invited us to join her large, long-standing school for this experience and we've done this every year. Inspiration and fun for children and parents!

The book 1 and 2 class will have 2/14 and 2/21 Thursday classes from 5:30 - 6:15 at the Willems home, 5240 N Hollywood Ave. Whitefish Bay 53217, with Stella and all of you in charge!
