The History of the Idaho Suzuki Institute

It was Sunday evening, mid-1960s in Nampa, Idaho. The television set was tuned to “The Ed Sullivan Show”. A five year old violinist stepped forward and performed Gigue by Veracini. He was followed by a group performing the first movement of the Concerto for Two Violins by Bach.

It was Dr. Shinichi Suzuki and the first international tour promoting his philosophy of “Talent Education.”

June Itami couldn’t believe her eyes or ears. She immediately sought more information on the tour and Dr. Suzuki. In 1969 the Talent Education tour came to Pendleton, Oregon. Mrs. Itami took as many of her students as she could to the event. She attended the Suzuki Summer School in Matsumoto, Japan in 1972. The seeds of the Idaho Suzuki Institute were planted.

In harmony with Dr. Suzuki’s philosophy and objectives, June Itami founded the Idaho Suzuki Institute. The first Idaho Suzuki Institute was held in 1974 on the campus of Boise State University. The three day Institute was run on a shoestring budget. The first programs were produced on a mimeograph machine. The first year faculty was Dr. Theodore Brunson, Harold Mealy, Walter Cerveny, Charles Wilson, Dr. Curtis Wolfe, Carol White, June Itami and John H. Best.

As the Institute grew in size, the need to formally organize became imperative. In 1978 letters of incorporation were submitted and the Idaho Suzuki Institute Association, Inc. (now Idaho Suzuki Association) was born.

Since 1974 summer institutes have been held annually featuring outstanding guests and experienced local teachers. It has always been the aim of the Idaho Suzuki Institute to offer a high quality experience and keep fees as low to enable as many young people to participate as possible.

Heather has been married for 13 years and together wither her husband has five children, three of which play the violin. Heather teaches her children piano and last year decided to start her own “Musician’s In Motion” class for young children. In her course she taught theory, solfege, the Kodaly approach with fun games, songs, and lots of instrumental music for young children to easily learn and enjoy. A lot of it was memorization and repetition. It was amazing how she was able to teach three and four year olds how to recognize and remember notes with their values through fun games and songs along with many other things. She has taught herself most things by reading books, research and composing her own songs. Heather is excited for this opportunity to get to know each child this week and make music come alive in their live as well as a love for it.

Thank You It takes many hands and many hours to plan for and produce the annual Idaho Suzuki Institute. Many of our members work tirelessly behind the scenes, on a voluntary basis, to successfully stage this weeklong event. The following is an incomplete list of those who have spent many hours taking care of the important details. You know who you are, but please forgive us if anyone has inadvertently been left off this list. First off, we’d like to thank all of our wonderful ISA Board Members for all their hard work, particularly… all of them. Meredith and Linda for housing, Anja for the auction and artwork, JoAnn for registration and purse strings, Kristie for this incredible booklet, Liz for notes, Sara for ministering to the website and another beautifully realized Institute tee shirt. Jenny Iorga for the Honor’s recitals. We’d also like to thank the College of Idaho – Deidre Friedle, Kelly Sullivan, Ashley Mckinnon and their support staff. Thank you to Carpenters’ Screen Printing.

A great big thank you to all of the ISA member families whose yearly membership dues keep the tuition of the Idaho Suzuki Institute low! We would also like to thank the businesses and organizations that are scattered throughout this booklet for their generous support from year to year, an incomplete list includes: Dorsey Music, Dunkley Music, Shiverick Violins, Telford and Sons Violins. Additionally, we’d like to give a great big heartfelt thanks to all of the artists, artisans, businesses and friends who have graciously donated items to our auction! Finally, we’d like to thank our amazing directors, Bronwen Godfrey, Connie Hadlock and Debbie Hynes, -without you we wouldn’t have an Institute. Thank you for your knowledge, wisdom, inspiration and love you provide for our children. We cannot thank you enough! - THANK YOU!
