    The Suzuki-Orff School for Young Musicians provides exceptional arts education as a catalyst to help children reach their greatest potential. Our innovative curricula: • Nurture creativity and self-expression; • Develop music and critical thinking skills; • Accelerate academic achievement; and, • Incorporate family as an integral part of a child's learning experiences. The School brings together families from a wide range of cultural backgrounds, with a strong emphasis on reaching those who face significant economic and environmental challenges. Suzuki-Orff's on-site programs and outreach initiatives in the Chicago Public Schools provide high-quality, year-long arts education to thousands of children each week. Suzuki-Orff was founded in 1981 to fill a void in Chicago’s education community. We began teaching Orff classes and Suzuki instruction to a diverse group of fifteen families. Within two years, we established partnerships with nearby public schools to broaden our on-site student base and created a need-based tuition assistance program. Inspired by our innovative methods, Chicago Public Schools requested our help to bring music programming into their schools. As a result, we launched Project IMAGE in 1986. This program provides innovative, long term arts education in schools that serve low and mixed-income populations. We initiated Baby STEPS® in 1994, Clap, Sing and READ!® in 1996, and Music LEAPS in 2000. These initiatives, designed into core Suzuki-Orff programs. Today, Suzuki-Orff serves thousands of children and families each year.

    Still Voice Music
    “Bringing the sound of the lyre back into the consciousness of people in order to create spiritual movement is one of the driving forces behind my music,” Alan Goldberg says from his Austin, Texas home. While the wellspring of the music is from a Jewish perspective, the sense of yearning in the music is accessible to ”seekers” of all faiths. The result is relaxing, meditative, and focused music which seems ancient yet contemporary at the same time.
