Shinichi Suzuki: The Man and His Philosophy (Revised)

  • Publisher: Alfred Music

Shinichi Suzuki has been described as a humanitarian as well as an educator and musician. While a young man, he observed that children absorbed their spoken language based on their environment. This led him to adapt his teaching of music to the same method, that which is called the Mother Tongue Approach. Through listening to the sound of music, very young children soon imitate the tones they hear. Suzuki believes that talent is not inherited, but is a product of environment, and that every child can perform music just as he has learned to speak, if the proper teaching approach is used. Revised in 1995, The Man and His Philosophy contains many new photos, some of them depicting the many "firsts" in the Suzuki world, such as Dr. Suzuki with his first students, plus much more. This is a complete history of the Suzuki movement, in words and pictures, from its beginnings to the present day.

Suzuki

A New Yorker Best Book of the Year The remarkable life of violinist and teacher Shinichi Suzuki, who pioneered an innovative but often-misunderstood philosophy of early childhood education—now known the world over as the Suzuki Method. The name Shinichi Suzuki is synonymous with early childhood musical education. By the time of his death in 1998, countless children around the world had been taught using his methods, with many more to follow. Yet Suzuki’s life and the evolution of his educational vision remain largely unexplored. A committed humanist, he was less interested in musical genius than in imparting to young people the skills and confidence to learn. Eri Hotta details Suzuki’s...

Shinichi Suzuki

This short and poignant biography gives the reader some very touching insights into the make-up of this special human being. This biography was part of the Suzukis' fiftieth wedding anniversary observance in 1978. It traces Suzuki's roots back to early childhood, and continues up until the movement caught hold in the United States in the mid-sixties. The philosophical roots of Talent Education are explored, punctuated with charming anecdotes which bring the entire development into sharp focus. One gains insight into the struggles of the early years, and the ever-present Japanese philosophical guidance which spurred Suzuki onward. The title Man of Love could not be more apt, we learn, as we peer through the windows of the gentle, wise and loving soul of Shinichi Suzuki "who lit a great candle of hope for the people of the world." The English-language translation of this work of gratitude was completed in 1984 by Kyoko Selden, who captures the Japanese flavor or aura so well in En
