Bach in the Subways (Zara Lawler and students)

Bach in the Subways is an annual global celebration of Bach’s music. Musicians of all stripes offer free concerts of Bach’s music in subways and other public spaces, so it is a perfect fit for Suzuki students since we play so much Bach! This photo is from Bach in the Subways 2018. It was our fourth year participating, and our second year at Grand Central Station in New York City.
