Do you have musical inspirations eg composers or players or friends?
I don’t really have any particular inspirations but when I hear of people I know doing well I strive to emulate them. My favourite composer is J. S. Bach. Do you have favourtite contemporary music/musicians/bands? Not really. I used to listen to the Beatles and Eagles a lot! What would you do with the prize money? Obviously any money I win will come in really handy to help finance my studies and participation in music festivals and competitions. Do you think younger people enjoy classical music as much as they could? I think they could enjoy it a lot more if they gave it a chance. How would you make your friends and other younger people want to come to a concert or listen to classical music? I guess I would first introduce them to easily accessible and enjoyable classical music. Also it’s really important that people discard their misperceptions that classical music is somehow too “intellectual” for them and that classical music loses its snobbish reputation. Do you have siblings? Yes,
