Welcome to TESS!

Welcome to the Talent Education Suzuki School (TESS), the premier center for music education in Fairfield County. TESS, located in Norwalk, Connecticut, was founded by musicians and Suzuki professionals Rebecca Christopherson and Jennifer Trahan. The mission of TESS is to provide students with the highest-level of musical training through the Suzuki Method, while fostering the development of musical intelligence, interest, awareness, and appreciation in a positive and nurturing environment. At the same time, our goal is to develop in every student important life concepts such as discipline, respect, and self-motivation that will enable them to flourish throughout their lives.
