Some people ask “what course will you take?” or “in 10 years from now, what is your profession gonna be?” from those questions, the answer already popped up in my mind saying to them that “Im going to be a professional performer some day with my skills in music.” My love from music is way beyond that what people think right now about me. I was very fascinated at those people who performed live concerts in public and privately, using the one instruments that they use to perform, whether it is singing, dancing or playing musical instruments. the one instrument that I find truly fascinating is what i'm currently playing right now and continuously practicing my craft to it, is the violoncello.
I LOVED to perform on stages or in other public places because it was my passion and my drive to perform in front of the people I know and people I didn't know. Not only by playing cello, but also to sing, and to dance in some places. Music is the one that kept me going throughout the years since my childhood era.
I started playing music when I was 6 years old and my first instrument is drums. Then when I was 9 years old, I started singing competing in my local school in singing contest. at 13 years old I started to have piano lessons and play some classical music and I play some of mozart's pieces at 14 years old, in the same time I started to learn also to play guitar. But now, I started to play cello since I was 19 years old and now I'm currently playing some Haydn and Beethoven musics in cello.
As you perform, you sometimes feel of what you play that you like about and sometimes you can give goosebumps all over your body. That for me is one of the reasons why I loved to perform in any places, as long as I can truly perform what my heart gives about that I can release to the people around me. whether it is for wedding, for big events, or concerts, I'll be very grateful to perform live with you.
