Support Ottawa Suzuki Strings

We achieve our mission by…

  • using a method inspired by the pedagogical philosophy of Shinichi Suzuki
  • providing a well-balanced learning experience
  • working with a well-trained faculty
  • offering private and group lessons
  • including various string instruments – violin, viola, cello, guitar and voice
  • encouraging performances for various age groups

To complete this mission, we count on the generous donation of the community members and the parents of the students attending the school. Your contributions help strengthen the musical community in the National Capital region.
