CCSA and the "Suzuki Method"
|
The Suzuki method was designed to encourage a child’s natural ability to learn music in the same way he or she learns language: through listening, imitation and repetition. Students listen to recordings, attend weekly lessons and group classes and perform often. The Mission of the Copper Country Suzuki Association is to help every child to find the joy that comes through music making. Children thrive in a total environment of support; they develop confidence and self-esteem, determination to try difficult things, self-discipline and concentration, as well as the lasting enjoyment of music and the sensitivity and skill for making music.

New Program for Young Children Dr. Amanda Plummer will be offering Music Together classes at the Superior School of Dance beginning this fall. The mixed age class is one that children can attend from birth to age 5 with an adult. Music Together is not part of CCSA, but shares with Suzuki the philosophy that all children are musical and CCSA highly recommends the program. Registration can be done directly through Amanda who can be reached at 487-9426. CCSA Private instructors will have information about Music Together and registration forms available. |
