News about Princeton String Academy.

The Suzuki Method trains the ear before the eye. Students are taught basic listening and playing skills before note reading is introduced, in the same way children learn to speak and understand language before reading is introduced.

Private lessons range in length from 30 minutes to a full hour, depending on the age, attention span and playing level of the student.

Ensemble and Theory classes are 45 - 60 minutes and are required, with specific classes determined by the age and playing level of the student.

Playing opportunities include recitals, group concerts, Master classes, Performance classes, Play-Ins and Outreach concerts.
