Hello, I am a 10-year-old girl living in Korea who loves the cello. I started playing the cello at the age of 7 after watching Yo-Yo Ma’s video of Bach Prelude. My dream and goal in music is to become a person who can share positive influence through the cello in my community, just like Yo-Yo Ma. Music brings me great joy and inspiration.
I hold a Grade 4 ABRSM Cello certification, organized by the Royal Schools of Music in the UK, and recently completed a successful orchestra performance at the Manhattan School of Music 2024 summer camp. Following that, I finished a solo performance with the orchestra at JCC Manhattan, organized by Music Talks, playing the Boccherini Cello Concerto.
Thank you.
