Early Childhood Education Classes

General Music Classes are a fun and creative way to introduce your child to music. If your child is younger than five years old, we recommend you enroll in a general music class for at least a year before taking an instrument. We also suggest that you enroll for at least a semester in a course run at SMSW since our courses are designed to help the transition into private instrumental lessons and are part of the Suzuki curriculum. Please read our terms of service for this class before enrolling.

Our cadre of talented instructors believe that all children can develop fine musical talents the same way they learn to speak – through listening, imitation, repetition and a positive motivational environment created by parents.

The Suzuki School Honors program is for highly motivated students interested in a rounded musical education. The Honors program is defined by a concentrated musical curriculum that includes private lessons, ensemble training, music theory, and community service. Student progress is assessed through an annual evaluation. Official documentation of achievement is given, including documentation from the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music, ABRSM. The Honors course requires an annual enrollment, but graduation from any level is not expected within one year. The Honors program is split into three levels. Students are admitted to the Honors Program through a live audition process. The honors program includes a fully integrated curriculum covered by an all-inclusive fee.
