About the author
Shinichi Suzuki, geboren in Nagoya, Japan, als Sohn des Gründers der weltgrößten Geigenfabrik, erlernte das Geigenspielen erst in seinem siebzehnten Lebensjahr. Nach Beendigung seines Studiums in Tokio ging er nach Berlin, wo er acht Jahre Karl Klinglers Schüler war. Dann kehrte er 1928 mit seiner Frau Waltraud nach Japan zurück, um Konzerte zu geben und zu unterrichten.§Erst gründete er mit dreien seiner Brüder das Suzuki-Quartett, entdeckte dann das Lernvermögen sehr kleiner Kinder und errichtete das jetzt weltbekannte Talenterziehungs-Institut.§Seine Methode hat Professor Clifford Cook so tief beeindruckt, dass dieser sie auch im Oberlin-College-Konservatorium einführte.
