Suzuki Viola School CD Volume 3 & 4 (Revised): Viola: Instrumental Tutor

Teach Viola with the popular Suzuki Viola School. 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. According to Shinichi Suzuki a world-renowned violinist and teacher the greatest joy an adult can know comes from developing a child's potential so he/she can express all that is harmonious and best in human beings. Students are taught using the 'mother-tongue' approach. Each series of books for a particular instrument in the Suzuki Method is considered a Suzuki music school such as the Suzuki Viola School. Suzuki lessons are generally givenin a private studio setting with additional group lessons. The student listens to the recordings and works with their Suzuki Viola teacher to develop their potential as a musician and as a person. This Suzuki Book
