Why do you love to perform?
I love to perform because it is such a powerful form of communication, unlike anything else. I love being able to tell a story or convey an emotion beyond words to the audience. Although I still get nervous before performing, I'm mostly just excited to bring life to a composer's work and share it with others. My favorite part of performing is when I can look directly at someone in the audience and form a connection with them through music.
