Board Presidents’ Letter
Dear Friends of the Preucil School of Music,
C
omposers know that in addition to pitch, rhythm and
instrumentation, dynamics often make or break a piece
of music—too quiet for too long and listeners become listless, and if the music JUST STAYS LOUD the audience will
become overwhelmed (and the orchestra exhausted).
At the Preucil School, we also understand ups-and-downs of
music—and of life—sometimes whether we like it or not.

In 2008, we shared in the statewide pianissimo associated
with the most serious flooding in Iowa’s history, accompanied by our nation’s gravest economic crisis since the Great
Depression.
By 2009, the floodwaters had receded, but our economy remained stalled—and yet we orchestrated the thunderous fortissimo of “A Night in Vienna,” raising more than $39,000
for scholarship students and our operating budget.
This past year, two years after the onset of the “Great Recession,” we were forced to make significant sacrifices—cutting
our budget, foregoing salary adjustments, and trimming programs. These were measures no one welcomed, but that were
necessary for us to secure our financial foundation for the
long term.
As we consider our recent past, we are hoping for a “mezzoforte” short-term future—perhaps not quite as booming as in
some years, but a clear change in direction that better reflects
the extraordinary commitment of the entire Preucil community.
Our mission is simple: “Suzuki training is life training.” Despite the challenges “life” may present, we take great pride in
knowing that year-in-and-year-out the Preucil School provides hundreds of families the absolute best musical instruction available anywhere, enabling children to grow in their
musicianship and as maturing young adults.
In keeping with the “dynamic” spirit of this letter, the members of both the Board and Guild gratefully thank you for
contributing to the “crescendo” of success that is the Preucil
School of Music.
Sincerely,
Ronald R. Reed
Sandra Thorington

Mission & Vision Statements
Mission
T
he Preucil School of Music provides excellence in music and early
childhood education based on the Suzuki philosophy of instruction.
Vision
T
he Preucil School of Music is dedicated to the development of ability
in all children. We teach according to the philosophy of Shinichi Suzuki, who has proven that particular talents are not inborn, and that all
children can develop their abilities in music and other areas to a high level
if they learn in the manner that they learned to speak their “mother
tongue.”
The Preucil School offers excellence in early childhood education and
musical instruction for students of all ages in a caring, nurturing environment. It helps parents and children to share in the learning process, serves
as a center for involvement in varied early childhood and musical activities, and attempts to create a rich musical and educational environment in
the community.
The Preucil School believes music training is life training, of equal importance to all children regardless of economic status. It aims to keep tuition
affordable, and offers aid to those students in need of assistance who demonstrate a desire to learn.

From the Director
Dear Friends,
T
he 2009-10 school year was bittersweet. Due to the struggling economy, the Preucil School’s endowments lost
considerable ground. In response to the resulting economic
pressures, we cut our budget, eliminated faculty and staff
raises, and restructured our program offerings. Despite our
challenges, there were many bright spots to celebrate.
In November, our Board of Trustees and Guild hosted “A
Night in Vienna” at the Coralville Marriott, raising more than $39,000 for our
school’s operating budget. A special “thank you” goes out to the members of
the Board and Guild, local artists and to the co-chairs for making this community event such a success.
Because of the personal commitment of so many individuals, we were able to
maintain funding for financial aid, allowing most students in need of assistance
to continue their musical studies. Throughout the year, our faculty and students
collaborated to present extraordinary recitals and concerts. Our studios were
filled with “ahhh” moments as Preucil students developed their skills, and many
of our students had the opportunity to share their talents at the local, state and
national levels.
The accomplishments of this past year, and our steadfast determination to move
forward, demonstrate the importance of coming together, embracing change,
working hard and staying positive no matter what the circumstances. We are
grateful to everyone in the Preucil community, and thank you for your continued
support of our school and its mission.

Tenets of Suzuki Philosophy
D
r. Shinichi Suzuki believed, “Where love is deep, much can be
accomplished.” His approach, based upon the “mother tongue”
method, aims to develop the whole child through the following tenets:
Create a positive environment
Set repertoire
Parent participation
Ear before eye
Begin early
Daily listening to recordings
Step-by-step learning
Repetition
Review
Group and private lessons

“A Night in Vienna”–Fund-Raiser
T
his past November, “A Night in Vienna” was hosted by the Board of Trustees
and Preucil Guild and held at the Coralville Marriott Hotel. The purpose of this
event was to raise funds to help defray deficits in future budgets until the weakened
economy and deflated endowments could rebound. We are so pleased that the evening was a big success.
Preucil Guild Chair, Sandra Thorington, and
Guild member Lillian Davis chaired the event.
Ticket sales totaled over 300; the event was supported by 16 sponsors; 53 students performed
during the evening; and approximately 100 volunteers made this event a reality. The evening’s
profit was $39,753.05. The positive impact of
this event will be felt on the 2010-11 operating
budget, as the Board of Trustees voted to apply a
portion of the proceeds to help minimize the tuition increase and remove the faculty/staff salary
freeze.
We can’t thank people enough for their support of
this beautiful, festive evening. It was fun seeing
Preucil School families and friends, both old and
new, come together on behalf of the Preucil
School of Music. We were honored by your attendance and continued support of the school.
