Season of Thanksgiving

Our Pre-Twinkle 2016-2017 Class of Suzuki Violins and Violas!

Pictured above the 2016-2017 Pre-Twinkle Class of Viola and Violin Students!Their first attempt at Group Class Playing Position!

With the season of thanksgiving upon us, we take a moment to reflect on the vision of Shinichi Suzuki from this excerpt from Nurtured By Love and

thank our students, families and teachers for their committment to developing beautiful and noble souls.

So That Everyone May Attain Happiness

I entertain for all people a sense of friendship and respect. Particularly when it comes to interacting with young children. I cannot help but do so with friendliness and respect. Additionally, I have come to live my days with the heartfelt prayer, “May every child born on this earth become an upstanding human being, a happy individual, and a person with desirable abilities.” This is because I came to realize that every child, without exception, is born with the potential to do so.

People ask me, “What’s the use of racing about whith such an impossible dream?” I believe, however that it is possible, that the time will surely come when humankind creates

such a world, and that one day people everywhere will recognize the potential of children.
