“I enjoy learning piano because it allows me to create some of my favorite music. I never get bored of it because it is a great combination of mental, physical, and emotional tasks. I enjoy taking piano from Hunterdon Academy of the Arts because my teacher is amazing and helps me to get past things in the music that are difficult. In my free time, I listen to many types of music but primarily classical. My favorite composer is probably Frederic Chopin. After graduating high school, I would like to study physics or math, and I would be interested in working at a university or a place of research. I don’t think I’ll choose music as a career, but I know I will appreciate it all my life."
