”So many things I loved about Suzuki! I loved the nurturing and respectful environment of the Suzuki community. I loved Suzuki’s high standards—it was always about beautiful playing with beautiful tone. I loved the way performing in public was a natural part of every Suzuki child’s musical journey. I loved Suzuki teachers—my son’s teacher was amazing; enthusiastic, creative and encouraging. Flute lessons were a highlight of every week. I loved the all-instrument annual festival with guest teachers from overseas and hundreds and hundreds of excited happy children and their parents sharing their love of music together. But what I loved most as a mother was being included in my child’s musical journey. “
