About
I have a deep interest in historical music. Classical music is arguably one of humanity's greatest accomplishments and listening to the great masters can be a life changing experience. Neo-romanticism not only draws upon the tradition laid down by the great masters of the past, but it also incorporates modern innovation along with other influences from different genres. I believe Neo-romanticism has a place in our modern music era.
I grew up in Los Angeles and moved to the Midwest in 2017. My first introduction to classical music was hearing Chopin's Revolutionary etude for the first time along with Beethoven's Moonlight sonata. Currently a senior in high school, and I hope to continue composing, playing, and learning through college.
Composers whom I draw the most inspiration from:
(From left to right) Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Chopin, Gottschalk, Liszt, Tchaikovsky, Balakirev, Dvorak, Joplin, Debussy
(second page) Rachmaninoff, Gershwin, and Bortkiewicz.
