Suzuki: The Man and His Dream to Teach the Children of the World: Monday, March 20th, 2023, from 10a-11a PT
Please note the change in the date for this session!
Featuring Eri Hotta and Kristen Krauss
About this session: Eri Hotta’s book Suzuki: The Man and His Dream to Teach the Children of the World offers us new insight into the story of Dr. Shinichi Suzuki along with a beautiful reminder of his conviction that all children have a tremendous capacity to learn. Dr. Suzuki’s story offers not only a fresh perspective on early childhood education but also a gateway to the fraught history of musical border drawing and to the makings of a globally influential life in Japan’s tumultuous twentieth century. Join Eri, along with Kristen Krauss, her daughter’s own Suzuki teacher, in conversation about the book, its relevance, and how we can continue to build Dr. Suzuki’s dream.
