Haoning Ma is a bright and talented 6-year-old who began exploring music and piano at the age of 4 and has loved performing ever since. Her journey has already included exciting experiences in the United States Open Music Competition (USOMC) and the International Piano Performance Association (IPPA), where she shared her passion for music with others. Recently, she enjoyed playing charming Burgmüller pieces and has been discovering the fun rhythms of rags and blues. Always curious and creative, Haoning also keeps up with the latest music trends including those from Kpop Demon Hunters, showing her love for both classical and modern styles. Joining the American Protégé competition is a wonderful opportunity for her to grow, learn, and inspire others through her music.
