Suzuki Music SA
If children hear fine music from the day of their birth and learn to play it, they develop sensitivity, discipline and endurance. They get a beautiful heart.

The Suzuki Method

The Suzuki Method is a music education approach developed by the great Japanese humanitarian and educator Dr Shinichi Suzuki (1899-1999).

Suzuki Method is a way of learning music based on the way all children learn to speak, which is listening, repeating, imitating, practising and remembering words. This universal, no-fail educational approach is applied with great success to the learning of music.

Just as ALL children learn to speak in a language-rich environment Suzuki Method believes that a music-rich environment develops musical enjoyment and ability in ALL children. Musical talent is not inborn – it is created with the devoted assistance and encouragement of the child’s parents and teachers.

Our Mission

Our Mission is to nurture happy and successful future world citizens through music, using the guiding principles of the Suzuki Philosophy and Pedagogy.

Through the study and performance of music, we seek to enrich student’s lives, enhancing their family relationships, encouraging them to strive for excellence in all areas of life.

Sounds Great – How Do I Begin Learning Music via the Suzuki Method?

Your First step is to choose an instrument and contact a registered Suzuki teacher to arrange regular one-on-one lessons. Select the ‘Step One: Find a Teacher’ button below for our contact list of Suzuki trained and child-safe compliant teachers. You may wish to select a a teacher based on location or phone a few to discuss your needs, studio policies and fees. If you have already found a Suzuki teacher, we recommend checking our list to ensure that they are registered. Typically, Suzuki students will attend a private lesson with this teacher once per week, and practise daily at home with their carer. Once one-on-one lessons begin, you are eligible to join the Suzuki Association, a motivating community where students form friendships and encourage each other through group lessons, festivals and concerts. Students will also have the chance to progress through the Suzuki graduation system, all the way from beginner stages to advanced diploma equivalent pieces.
