ABOUT
I can sing multiple genres though I mostly do classical. I am quite happy to learn some requested songs so long as I have a few days to learn them. I have done 7th grade AMEB in violin which I got a B+ though it is no longer my main instrument and am currently doing 8th grade AMEB singing as well as VCE music. I have been a part of multiple choirs including YVM, Bendigo Youth Choir and school choirs at Shelford Girls Grammar and Yarra Valley grammar at which I had music scholarships. I was top of my class in music in 2022 and received the Ostinato award as well as placing 2 2nds and a 3rd in the Ringwood Eisteddfod. Now I volunteer with the Yo Bendigo Events Team. Here is a sample of my singing: https://www.instagram.com/tv/CmIgoi9p_lR/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

Influences
My music teachers have influenced me a lot over the years including my violin teacher Ruth Dixon-Laurence and my singing teacher Carole McKenzie. I am also influenced by the music I listen to, which has drifted towards a lot of French composers such as Fauré, Debussy and Bizet. Despite that I still try to listen to a wide range of genres to see more sides to music.

EQUIPMENT
I would need a Bluetooth speaker and a microphone (I have a small Bluetooth speaker though that doesn’t always suffice), and if it’s outside of Bendigo and there isn’t public transport, a way to get there.
