We are 5 in our class but unfortunately the other 2 is absent. This is the last lesson for our group class. After learning some pieces, the 3 of us have decided to re-enroll to further our learning. =) Class starts September 27.
I 've managed to collect videos on YouTube and posted it in here for easy reference. This collection is a good reference for those using the Suzuki Method and the Suzuki Violin School book, Violin Part, Volume 1 by Suzuki Method International.
Most of the videos here were played by a female violin player from South Korea. I am a subscriber of her videos on Youtube. The pieces were played using an electric violin.
The other 2 videos (Lightly Row and Andantino) were posted on Youtube by violinspieler from Germany.
Enjoy Watching!

The CD that comes with the book is of course the best reference for the Volume 1 pieces but a visual reference is also a great help.
She's on my list. One of the best violinist of this generation. At 28 years of age she had already traveled so many countries, touring for concerts and album promotions. She is Hilary Hahn.

Hilary Hahn is an American violinist born November 27, 1979 in Lexington, Virginia.
Hahn began playing the violin one month before her fourth birthday in the Suzuki Program of Baltimore's Peabody Conservatory. She participated in a Suzuki class for about a year. Between 1984 and 1989 Hahn studied in Baltimore under the direction of Klara Berkovich. In 1990, at the age of ten, Hahn was admitted to the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia where she became a student of Jascha Brodsky. Hahn studied with Brodsky for seven years and learned the études of Kreutzer, Ševčík, Gaviniès, Rode, as well as the Paganini Caprices. She also learned about twenty-eight violin concertos, recital programs, and several other short pieces.
"At the age of 28, Grammy Award-winning violinist Hilary Hahn is one of the most compelling artists on the international concert circuit. Renowned for her intellectual and emotional maturity, she was named "America's Best" young classical musician by Time Magazine in 2001, and appears on a regular basis with the world's great orchestras in Europe, Asia, and North America." - HilaryHahn.com
