There are a lot of senior musicians in our school and I chose to interview four of them who are students in piano, choir, sylvan, and band. Genevieve Burlew, Ashley Campos, Stephanie Robles, and Kevin Bae are some of these talented musicians.
Genevieve Burlew is a senior band student. She really enjoys listening to music and playing instruments. Genevieve likes being in the band because she gets to learn new songs and she enjoys watching how the band progresses throughout the year. The more the band practices ,she feels satisfied in the band and thinks it's really cool that she gets to hear all of the different instruments playing together at once, especially hearing their sounds blend. Finally, she loves that she gets the chance to talk to people that she doesn't really know, especially people who aren’t in her grade.
Ashley Campos is a Soprano and has been in Sylvan since sophomore year. Music for her is an expression., iIt's a way she can release stress, anger, sadness,and experience happiness. For Ashley, music is a huge part of who she is. She always end up getting involved in music in some way. Music has been one of the few constants in her life especially when she needed some extra encouragement or support. Ashley also loves learning new music and techniques, and loves hearing very expressive people sing. She really enjoys performing too. Music keeps her busy when she is feeling unmotivated or lazy,. and because of music, she has been able to meet and connect with a lot of people.
Stephanie Robles has been in Sylvan for 2 years., She was in choir for 2 years as well. Stephanie really enjoys singing and has learned that it's so much more than just singing. She has learned how to read music and has enjoyed learning how to blend in harmony with the other parts of the choir She likes being in choir because singing makes her happy, and Sylvan has become like her family .While practicing alone, Stephanie also taught herself how to play the piano. She always wanted to learn how to play the piano so she could sing while playing. Music makes her happy, and is an outlet for her when she is feeling stressed or is in a bad mood.
Kevin Bae has been taking piano lessons from Mrs.Choi, one of the piano teachers here at AAA . He has been learning piano for 3 years since coming to Auburn Adventist Academy. Kevin really enjoys listening to music all the time, and has a massive interest in playing songs that he likes. He puts in effort playing his favorite kpop or hip hop music, reading the sheet music, and practicing when he has free time. Kevin is talented in singing also. He isn't in the choir or sylvan, however he sings really well and enjoys it. Everytime he gets stressed because of the boring routine after school, he listens to music at home, sings, and practices the piano. Music is one of the key components in Kevin's life.
