Ecuador: Great Education Includes Music

We are excited to share with you this short video sent to us by the INEPE School in Ecuador which has incorporated Suzuki music education into the lives of its students.

We loved seeing the high quality Suzuki piano, violin, flute, etc. education happening across our globe.

As the video shows, “The testimonies of our students’ parents share with us how music has united their families as it allows them to share together not only by participating in the performances of their children at school. …As they listen and enjoy music together they can also strengthen their bond at home.”

We want to hear from you!

New projects are brewing at the SAA and we need input from teachers to help inform them. Fill out this quick, 5 question, 7 minute survey to help us help you.
