“As I wake up in the morning, to get my day started, I go to the piano and start practicing. I enjoy getting the flow of the music inside of me, and putting my fresh energy into the music I love. During my five and-a-half years of piano study, I have always looked forward to practicing and listening to my teacher’s instruction. Learning new music is an excitement and enthrallment for me. It gives this feeling that is wondrous, a feeling that I cannot describe. Even practicing old pieces brings me joy too, because after I have made the notes perfect, I can try to tell the story inside the music better each time I play.”
