- Each student should review the entire Suzuki repertoire up to and including the current piece for his or her playing level. Be prepared to play a polished piece for the first class meeting.
- No matter what the level of current study, the student should select a piece from the repertoire that has been studied over a period of time, NOT THE NEWEST OR LATEST PIECE. The masterclass teacher can better assess the student’s needs by hearing a technically and musically mature piece.
Except for pianists, each student who registered with a musicianship level of C or D needs to bring a music stand (labeled with student’s name) to the Institute.
