German Philosopher once said, “Life without music is a mistake” I am glad that my life was not a mistake ever since I was young. My musical journey starts with when I was five years old. My mother took me to a private home for piano lessons every week. After few years of studies, my teacher suggested me to enter a specialized music school that offered many talents teens to study music. I passed the entrance exams and began my three years of serious classical music learning there. During that time, the school requires every piano major to minor a second instrument, so I chose harp as my second instrument. I felt in love with the harp and soon I was double majored both piano and the harp.
