Suzuki Music Institute of Central Florida develops the talents of piano and string performers. Following the philosophy of Dr. Suzuki, each student is provided a nurturing environment that enables them to reach their full potential. Students participate in the Federation of Music Clubs Junior Festival, National Guild of Piano Teachers auditions, community performances and recitals. We provide performance experiences that accelerate skill development and build student confidence. Our goal is to teach musical literacy and instill a love of music.
The advantage of the Suzuki method is that students as young as 3 years old can begin to study an instrument at an early age. Music reading is postponed until the child’s aural and instrumental skills are developed in the same way a young child learns to speak before they read and write. Group lessons are instrumental because students learn from each other through listening to each other play the same Suzuki repertoire which consists of actual classical compositions by the great masters. For the older student ages 7 and up, traditional methods that incorporate a balanced approach to reading music, aural development and technique are most often the preferred approach. At the Suzuki Music Institute, unlike other schools and private teachers, we offer group lessons that help students accelerate learning through peer interaction.
