Why do you love to perform?
I love to perform because of how much confidence and pride it gives me. When I finally get to share with others a piece that I have been working on for a long time, I get so excited and I feel proud of all my hard work. I create a story and a mood for each piece and to convey those feelings and emotions to people is so powerful. I also love all the work that goes into performing. All of the laughs, tears, and hours of practicing makes everything worth it. I learn so much about music, the piece itself, and myself through practice and preparation.
