7th Suzuki Teachers’ Exchange Weekend
in Germany
(Violin / Viola / Cello)
Suzuki teachers from all over the world will come to the Conference and share their experience.
They are preparing wonderful lectures,
discussions and instrumental sessions FOR YOU.
One of the conference highlights will be the world-renowned American violinist and pedagogue BRIAN LEWIS, one of the most versatile and charismatic violinists today.
During the conference, Brian Lewis will lecture, perform a recital, and teach masterclasses for students and teachers.
He is the son of Alice Joy Lewis, a well-known pioneer of the Suzuki method in the United States.
As a child, he studied with and performed for Dr. Suzuki on many occasions. As a dynamic and engaging teacher, Brian Lewis is committed to growing the legacies of the great pedagogues
Dorothy DeLay and Dr. Shinichi Suzuki
for future generations.
As an introduction to the conference you can find here a very recent report with a series of short videos about our famous guest lecturer Brian LEWIS.
