ABOUT THE Third Coast Suzuki Program

Bianca d’Avila do Prado, Evanston Program Coordinator

The Third Coast Suzuki Cello program was developed from MIC's decision to dedicate more resources to Evanston, particularly its Latino community. Inspired by a critical need for music education, the program emerged through collaboration with community leaders. 

Students enrolled in the Third Coast Suzuki Cello program receive a comprehensive music education, tuition-free. This includes weekly 30-minute private lessons and 30-minute group classes, tickets to concerts at Nichols Concert Hall, active participation in MIC performances, and the opportunity to secure scholarships for events like the Chicago Suzuki Institute and the MIC Suzuki Winter Workshop. The program also provides students with essential resources such as cellos, stools, straps, Suzuki books, and CDs, ensuring that financial constraints never hinder their musical journey. Moreover, parents are invited to attend orientation sessions focusing on the Suzuki philosophy and method, fostering a supportive learning environment for the whole family.
