Suzuki Method Instruction

The highly popular Suzuki method is available for flute and classical guitar. Parents are highly involved in this approach, attending weekly lessons and assisting with practice sessions at home. We recommend a conference with faculty members Joe Scott (Guitar Department head) or Will Pfluger to assure the student has a properly sized instrument. Suzuki method Flute instruction is with Ms. Mariellen Sears. Ms. Sears, a long-time member of the Cape Cod Symphony, is one of the Cape’s most respected teachers.
