Thirty years is impressive for all kinds of relationships: marriage, friendships, jobs and living in a community. It's not as common for any of these to be maintained for this long, anymore. It is a proud realization for me to have done so with "Die Kinder Music Studio. I have enjoyed my years initiating, developing, maintaining and now closing "Die Kinder" Music Studio in Hutchinson. As I have reflected what has happened during these thirty years, I am proud of what has been accomplished, especially the wonderful musicians and young adults I've helped nurture. Students have achieved various degrees of ability through the Suzuki repertoire over the years, demonstrating the expectations of what all are able to accomplish through commitment, practice and patience throughout the levels. The comfort and beauty of the chosen literature, naturally develops the Twinkler into a strong performer from the beginning, cultivating their ability from then on through each book and skill level. Musical people aren't born; they're put in conducive environments that create them. This is what the Suzuki Method was established to do and this is why "Die Kinder" Music Studio embraced it's ideology from the start. For thirty years, musical students have blossomed here. It is with great joy and of course, sadness, that I bid the Hutchinson community farewell by closing "Die Kinder" Music Studio at Vineyard Methodist Church I would especially like to thank all of the families that have supported the studio through the years!
