As a pioneer Suzuki Harp Teacher and SAA Registered Harp Teacher Trainer since 2004, it has been Delaine Fedson Leonard’s privilege to bring Dr. Suzuki’s approach to ever increasing numbers of harpists. Many of her former students have become competition winners and professionals throughout the USA, Canada, France and Austria.  Her extensive background in harp pedagogy makes it easy to tailor her teaching approach to a student’s individual needs.
