Sheer technique is necessary but insufficient to play an instrument well. Aural skills, that include the study of functional tonality and voice-leading are important factors that impart musicality. This is of great import if the prospective musician wants the audience to truly enjoy his or her performance!

SUZUKI PIANO FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES
With 40 years experience, I have seen how well the Suzuki Method creates musicians who enjoy making beautiful music. Suzuki Piano involves the whole family, enriching the bonds between parents and children.

And you're never too old for Suzuki. The same incremental steps originally crafted for youngsters give the adult or teen beginner confidenc
