Remembering Everything for Conference? Building Noble Hearts Season TwoComing on May 28: Podcast season two of the the Suzuki Association of the Americas’ podcast series: Building Noble Hearts! We will release episodes on iTunes as well as on the SAA homepage with a transcript of the show and a link to a discussion forum where we can continue the conversation with interviewees. In season one we talked with individuals, learning how specific principles of Suzuki teaching influenced their lives. In season two, we will pull back and take a broader view of the ways Suzuki philosophy has influenced people through time, among community members, within families, and across the globe. Click Here to listen to this and all the other episodes.
