[10 years old] Bronze, Singapore Raffles International Music Festival, Junior B Category (Ages 10-12) - Violin Solo, 2023
The Singapore Raffles International Music Festival (SRIMF) was my first solo violin competition since I picked up the violin at the age of 7.
I was thrilled to receive a Bronze award for my live performance of Veracini’s ‘Allegro’ in the Junior B Category (Ages 10-12).
ABRSM Grade 5 - Violin Performance (Distinction)
I was awarded a Distinction for my Violin Grade 5 Performance exam, which I took at the beginning of Primary 4. The 1st piece, Folia, was the most challenging as it had a number of double stops. My teacher mentioned that most students would not choose that piece as it took them a long while to play it fluently. Though it was daunting, I am glad I persevered as I really liked the piece and the 4 variations that were tested.
ChildAid 2022
When I was 9, I had the honour of performing at ChildAid, a charity concert organised by The Straits Times and The Business Times. Held at the University Cultural Centre (UCC), the event raised funds for The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund and The Business Times Budding Artists Fund, which support children and youth from low-income families.
It was a truly meaningful experience to contribute through music.
Singapore Youth Festival (SYF) 2022 - MGS String Ensemble (Distinction)
The MGS Primary String Ensemble performed in the Singapore Youth Festival (SYF) in 2022 and we achieved a Distinction award from the school for our performance.
MGS Arts Festival 2021 - Represented Class
When I was in Primary 2, I was selected to represent my class for the 2021 MGS Arts Festival. As it was Covid period, we could not perform live. Therefore, the teachers streamed our pre-recorded performance to all the classes. I performed ‘Castle on a Cloud’ from the musical, Les Miserables.
ABRSM Grade 2 - Violin Performance (Distinction)
This was my first violin exam that I took in Primary 2 after about a year of learning. Back then, I was also learning the piano and exploring many other areas, including dance, tennis, art and singing. I practiced hard on my pieces and managed to score a Distinction award for this Grade 2 ABRSM Violin Performance exam.
