The NAU Community Music and Dance Academy offers instruction in the renowned Suzuki method for violin, viola, and cello players. The Suzuki curriculum provides instruction in group class and individual lesson settings by some of the most talented and hard-working teachers in the Northern Arizona region. Students in the Suzuki program have the opportunity to perform in recital and throughout the community every semester.
