Suzuki Quote of the Month

"Talent is no accident of birth. In today's society a good many people seem to have the idea that if one is born without talent, there is nothing he can do about it; they simply resign themselves to what they consider to be their fate. Consequently they go through life without living it to the full or ever knowing life's true joy. That is man's greatest tragedy."

Cooper International Violin Competition

Grace and Katherine attended some of the events at the Cooper International Violin Competition held at Oberlin Conservatory a few weeks ago.  They heard some of the semi-finalists play, the winners' concert, and masterclasses by David Cerone and my own conservatory professor, Milan Vitek. They had a fabulous time, learned many new things about violin playing, and were inspired by the beautiful music of the young performers. They are already planning to set aside the whole week when the competition returns in 2013.
