A Pedagogical Guide to Suzuki Violin School, Volume 4 Using the Suzuki Method

Abstract Details

2012, DMA, University of Cincinnati, College-Conservatory of Music: Violin.
Shinichi Suzuki established a highly influential and widely used method of musical instruction known as the Suzuki Method. Developed first for the violin, but now used for a variety of instruments, his method was based on his view that every child can be highly developed if he is given the proper training and learning environment. The Suzuki Method is based on repetition and constant review, and the volumes of music and instruction demonstrate a carefully graded approach to musical instruction. Suzuki wrote extensively about his techniques, but many of those ideas do not make it themselves into the Suzuki Violin School. Volume Four of Suzuki Violin School is the beginning of intermediate study and introduces new techniques such as shifting, positioning, and vibrato. Of all the volumes in the Suzuki Violin School, it is the most problematic, because the difficulty increases substantially over that of Volume Three, both in the pieces and in the techniques introduced. This document addresses this problem, and gives a plan for overcoming these difficulties. As such it will be beneficial for the teacher and student who use the Suzuki Method.
