Molly on the Shore-Percy Grainger

• I fell in love with music while playing this piece. It is my goal to play the solo one day. I have had the solo memorized for 4 years.

Piano Man-Billy Joel

• I can listen to this song on repeat forever. I love the emotion Billy sings with and it helps me connect to it. Plus it’s very catchy.

Danzon no. 2- Arturo Márquez

• This was my first big solo with a full band. I helped my gain confidence in my sound. I messed up at the performance but that’s ok!

Shut up and Dance- Walk the moon

• I forgot to download a lot of music when I got my new phone so this song was on repeat for two weeks while I was in Europe. I would fall asleep to it on the bus and it is forever embedded in my brain.

Relic-I don’t know who composed it and can’t find it on the internet

• This piece was played on my Europe trip and it ran through my head as I entered the cathedral of Prague. The moment was so beautiful that I cried and no pictures I took can ever do that cathedral justice.

River flows in You-Yiruma

• The first full piece I ever learned on piano. I have all of it memorized and it’s super easy but I look impressive when I play it.

Concerning Hobbits-Howard Shore

• I am obsessed with Lord of the Rings and hearing this always makes me smile. Plus, the main theme is performed on clarinet!

Circle of Life-Elton John

• Lion King was my first Broadway show and I will always remember the opening scene where all of the actors are dressed as animals!
