I have started my piano journey during 2020 COVID isolation time. I was not particular into piano playing and classical music in the past. But staying at home for school allowed me to have more time to explore music through piano. Sonatina is the most challenging piece that I have played up to this date. I hope I can continue explore the world of classical music from now on.
