ASJ Summer Photo Submissions!

Share your summer musical adventures with us! We’d love to feature your photos in the American Suzuki Journal or other SAA publications. Showcase a student, a fun teaching activity, a big concert, your Suzuki events, or anything musical or teaching related! For the cover of the ASJ, photos need to be from a real camera, not just a smartphone (at least 300 dpi). For other images, we prefer photos from real cameras, but smartphone photos can work.

Canada

On Saturday May 25th, 2024, Canadian Suzuki teachers made history.

On that day, Suzuki Music/Musique Canada held its first Annual General Meeting, on Zoom in both official Canadian languages, French and English, with teachers attending from coast to coast. 

Eight founding members were elected to this new Board, representing five Canadian provinces. The newly elected board will be working on exciting projects while continuing discussions with the SAA as representatives of the Canadian Suzuki community.

 

Le samedi 25 mai 2024, les professeurs Suzuki canadiens ont écrit une page d’histoire. Ce jour-là, Suzuki Music/Musique Canada a tenu sa première assemblée générale annuelle, sur Zoom, dans les deux langues officielles du Canada, le français et l’anglais, avec la participation de professeurs d’un océan à l’autre.

Huit membres fondateurs ont été élus à ce nouveau conseil, représentant cinq provinces canadiennes. Le conseil nouvellement élu travaillera sur des projets passionnants tout en poursuivant les discussions avec la SAA en tant que représentants de la communauté Suzuki canadienne.

Many thanks to our
