About The Hamilton Suzuki School of Music (HSSM)

The HSSM offers instruction by qualified teachers in Cello, Flute, Piano, Violin, Viola, and Early Childhood Education (ECE).

The ECE program introduces parents* and children newborn to 3 years of age to Suzuki education. At the age of 3 (although some children are not ready until a little older), the child is ready to switch to learning an instrument.

Whether progressing from our ECE program or starting directly to an instrument, you will be introduced to our faculty comprised of professional musicians, all of whom are highly qualified and Suzuki-trained. All The HSSM teachers are members of the Suzuki Association of the Americas.

The principles of the Suzuki method

The principles of the Suzuki method include parent involvement, daily listening, development of concentration and memory skills, learning to work with other students, parents, and teachers in group activities, and continual repetition, mastery, and refinement of techniques.

More about the Suzuki Principles

The HSSM is a charitable, not-for-profit organization registered with the Canada Revenue Agency and governed by a Board of Governors made up of elected teachers, parents and interested community members. The Board sets policies and governs the general operations of the school.

Together, we strive to develop children’s natural love of music and to nurture musical talents for personal enjoyment in a rewarding and vibrant learning environment.

*Expanded meaning of ‘parent’ to include any caregiver, guardian, grandparent, etc. who is supporting the child in the learning process.
