September Students of the Month

Sophia B.

"I am very honored to be nominated as the student of the month. I have been a student at Orpheus for 10 years and I have loved my time there and with Ms. Wendy. My time at Orpheus is almost done, but I am so happy to be nominated and I will continue to work hard."  -Sophia Balboa

"Sophia has been a tremendous student at Orpheus for the past 10 years. Her love of music and diligent practice have led her to participate in many Orpheus events like the 50 days practice challenge, Postcards to Seniors, Musical Journey home concert and Friendship concerts. For her senior project next spring, Sophia is planning to present several recitals at different local retirement homes. The repertoire will include one of her own compositions! I know that music will continue to be a big part of her life after high school. It has been such a pleasure working with Sophia for the past 10 years and I am going to miss her very much!" - Ms. Wendy

Livio W.

"I am so glad to be nominated Student of the Month! I am very grateful to Ms. Jae-Eun for guiding me on my journey through music, and I could never be where I am today without her. I have been working hard and learning a lot, and I look forward to playing increasingly challenging and different pieces on the piano, as well as sharing new experiences with the Orpheus community." - Livio W.

"Livio has studied piano with me since 2019. It has been a pleasure for me to teach and make music with him. He is a very bright, creative and sweet student. He likes to share his
​music with his family and friends. We've done many solo
performance projects, also duetplaying with his friends.
Looking forward to starting the Fallsemester with many fun
projects/performances with him." - Ms. Jae-Eun

"I feel very honored to be nominated for student of the month. I have made so much progress since starting lessons at Orpheus. The most important thing, for me, is keeping a consistent, daily practice routine. I give my special thanks to Brendon for being such a great teacher, who pushes me to be the best." - William N.

"William is a driven, focused and very curious student.  He does an enormous amount of work on the guitar each week and always has excellent questions.  I love his enthusiasm and love of music - congrats, man!" - Mr. Brendon

She is a hard-working student, and it’s my joy to witness her musical growth!" - Ms. Jeyeon
