Shinichi Suzuki

Shinichi Suzuki was a master violin teacher. He developed a music pedagogy method that is meant to not only develop good musicians, but also beautiful character. Here are some things he had to say about his work.

“Teaching music is not my main purpose. I want to make good citizens. If children hear fine music from the day of their birth and learn to play it, they develop sensitivity, discipline and endurance. They get a beautiful heart.”

“When love is deep, much can be accomplished”

“Music exists for the purpose of growing an admirable heart.”

“Art is not in some far-off place. A work of Art is the expression of a man's whole personality, sensibility and ability”

“The real essence of art turned out to be not something high up and far off - it was right inside my ordinary daily self - If a musician wants to become a finer artist, he must first become a finer person.”

“I am mentally preparing myself for the five-year-old mind. I want to come down to their physical limitations and up to their sense of wonder and awe.”

“Wrong education and upbringing produces ugly personalities, whereas a fine upbringing and good education will bring forth superior sense and feeling, as well as nobility and purity of mind.”
