The Bayswater Suzuki Group holds one major concert a year, during the Autumn Term. There are also two informal concerts held on the last day of the spring and summer terms to showcase all the work done in Group in the preceeding term.
Add to this that the teachers tend to hold a series of private soloists concerts each term for their private pupils, and that children may get in involved in the larger concerts put on by the London Suzuki Group (for instance an annual concert in Cadogan Hall) or the British Suzuki Institute (who have recently held concerts at the South Bank concert Halls, St John's Smith Square and the Royal College of Music), and it is clear that the performance opportunities are frequent.
