Suzuki Method Video Guidance Series

Video 1: The Law of Ability and the Mother Tongue Method of Education

Dr. Suzuki gives a lecture about the basic principle of his method, the belief that every ability, including musical skills is acquired and not inborn. Just the way children learn their mother tongue to the most delicate nuances of the local dialect, they can acquire musical abilities by an exposure to masterful performances and an informed guidance. This video also includes Dr Suzuki’s brief introduction to his teaching method as well as fragments of masterclasses and group performances at Summer School Matsumoto Japan (August 1974) and All Japan Conference, Budokan Hall Tokyo (March 23, 1975).
