Summy-Birchard Suzuki Bass School, Volume 2 (International Edition) - Double Bass - Book/CD

Author: Shinichi Suzuki
Performer: Gary Karr
Format: Book with CD
Instrumentation: Double Bass

Teach bass with the popular Suzuki Bass School. The Suzuki Method of Talent Education is based on Shinichi Suzuki's view that every child is born with ability, and that people are the product of their environment. According to Shinichi Suzuki, a world-renowned violinist and teacher, the greatest joy an adult can know comes from developing a child's potential so he/she can express all that is harmonious and best in human beings. Students are taught using the "mother-tongue" approach. Each series of books for a particular instrument in the Suzuki Method is considered a Suzuki music school, such as the Suzuki Bass School. Suzuki lessons are generally given in a private studio setting with additional group lessons. The student listens to the recordings and works with their Suzuki bass teacher to develop their potential as a musician and as a person.

This Suzuki Book & CD is integral for Suzuki bass lessons and features recordings by Gary Karr, accompanied by Harmon Lewis.
