The Suzuki Method of Talent Education is based on Shinichi Suzuki's view that every child is born with ability, and that people are the product of their environment.

Students are taught using the mother-tongue approach. Now available as Book & CD kit. Titles: Nonesuch * Greensleeves * Packington's Pound * Ghiribizzo (Paganini) * Waltz from Sonata No. 9 (Paganini) * Andantino (Carulli) * Calliope (Lesson 61) (Sagreras) * Etude (Carulli) * Etude (Coste) * Arietta, Theme & Variations (Küffner) * Celeste y Blanco (Ayala).
About Suzuki Method
The Suzuki Method is based on the principle that all children possess ability and that this ability can be developed and enhanced through a nurturing environment. All children learn to speak their own language with relative ease and if the same natural learning process is applied in teaching other skills, these can be acquired as successfully. Suzuki referred to the process as the Mother Tongue Method and to the whole system of pedagogy as Talent Education. The important elements of the Suzuki approach to instrumental teaching include the following:an early start (aged 3-4 is normal in most countries); the importance of listening to music; learning to play before learning to read; -the involvement of the parent; a nurturing and positive learning environment; a high standard of teaching by trained teachers; the importance of producing a good sound in a balanced and natural way; core repertoire, used by Suzuki students across the world; social interaction with other children. Suzuki students from all over the world can communicate through the language of music.

Many students are attracted to the guitar because of hearing the lead guitar solos by their favorite group or artist. Most of them in their early teens come into the teaching studio for their first lesson expecting to be shown a lead guitar solo off a newly released album. However, this brings up some problems. Most beginning students have not yet developed the skill in their hands to play such a solo, do not read music, or have not had music theory training. Because of this, beginning students entering a studio do not get the full benefit from the music because they are unable to apply the examples presented to them. It's because of these problems this book came about. Guitar Technique stresses from the beginning control of the instrument and basic music theory. After completing this book, a student will have the necessary musical background and skill to pursue any direction of guitar playing he/she chooses with success.
