I was so honored to perform in my Senior Recital, last Sunday in Clarke Recital Hall, amongst my teachers, family, and friends. It was an incredible experience, bringing my study of four years to its head with this program.
Dr. Hardenbergh, thank you for your teaching and guidance. I would not be the musician I am today without you.
Alexandra, in working with you this past semester I have grown not only as an interpreter but as an artist and as a person. I have found our work to be one of my greatest joys here at UM. Raul Jimenez, you are a truly gifted artist and collaborating with you was an absolute pleasure! With your exquisite playing on the clarinet, I felt we truly excelled in Schubert's Der Hirt auf dem Felsen.
And finally, Yueh-yin Liao... as always, you are my partner-in-crime. After four years of working together, I feel we have found our voice as an ensemble and I love you with all my heart! Being able to share this accomplishment with you has moved me and I am excited to see how much further we can go in the future!

Cheers to moving forward on to the next step of my education and career!
