Another concert tonight at 7:00: The Northern Lights Music Festival Faculty will be entertaining the community with a Beethoven Cello Sonata, Chopin 4th Ballade and other works. This will be the first time this year that we will hear Veda play, which is always a wonderful time for all involved.
Check out the information about this little pianist below:
Meet Joo Hyung who is seven years' old and is going into the second grade in Stamford, CT. She is a Student Council representative, and participates in numerous other extracurricular activities--chess, ballet, soroban (abacus), swimming and golf. She is originally from Seoul, Korea, but has lived in Abu Dhabi, Bangkok, Washington, D.C., and Phildadelphia. She has only been playing the piano for 9 months! Her instructor is Mitsuko Ichimura, who is one of the Festival faculty members. She has played in student recitals in NY, NJ, and CT and last month she played in the annual student recital at Carnegie Hall!
At last night's concert, she entertained us with Four Kabalevsky pieces: Fairy Tale, Meadow Dance, Playing Ball, Galop. She is quite the charmer and we look forward to seeing her perform again!
