My name is Ela. I like playing piano because every piece is different and unique, and it feels like each one tells its own story. I also like how all the different notes come together to create beautiful music. Some things that describe me is creative, smart and observant. I enjoy playing the piano because it is fun, creative and helps me express myself.
