Sleuthing Series — Suzuki method violin

JCCC Archives presents the Sleuthing Series, where every Tuesday, we bring you an image from our past and ask you to help us find out more!

1.  Tiny violins for tiny musicians.

 What We Know

This picture is from December 1982.  The log calls this “Suzuki Method Violin,” and, because the students are all children, we might assume that this is a Community Education class.  Suzuki violin classes for children 3-12  years of age were offered through Community Education the following spring.  Those classes were taught by Hilary D. Kolmas, an experienced instructor and musician.
