Cristal and Ursula performed their first-ever Book Recital together! Here’s what they had to say about the experience:
~ from Ursula
I have been learning cello for a relatively short time, so let me share my experience: I hope my pitch is correct, I will play each note with my heart, make each note have life, and finally let the listeners communicate with me through the music. Although it is difficult to make the listeners feel the emotions I want to express in the music, I am trying my best.

My first book recital went brilliant! And I’m really happy that I didn’t do huge mistakes. I think that Ms. Sonomi and Ms. Silvia helped me a lot and the beats of our joint pieces with Ursula become much stronger and steadier.
My family supports me a lot and I was so excited to have my little brother and cousins joining my recital. When we played our solo pieces, I felt I performed good for Allegretto, Lightly Row and French Folk Song. However, my bow got stuck when I was playing O Come Little Children because there was no space left with my long bow.
At last, we played the two joint pieces, I didn’t feel nervous any more and I enjoyed our performances very much. I felt so thankful to everyone who helped me during our practice and I hope I can have our second recital with Ursula very soon.
