Why do you love to perform?
It brings me joy and satisfaction to connect with people when I perform. I always want my listeners to experience something deeply fulfilling and meaningful to them. I chose to play the third movement of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto because its cheerful and lighthearted tone are able to invoke feelings of happiness in the listener.
