PROGRAM

The Brighton Orchestra program is rooted in Dr. Shinichi Suzuki’s Talent Education method; just as every child learns their native language with fluency, so every child can learn to play a stringed instrument beautifully.

This is accomplished through the loving support of families and a carefully sequenced instructional approach. Begin-ning in grade five and concluding in grade twelve, all Brighton Orchestra students have the opportunity to develop their abilities into a lifelong relationship with beauty in music.
