ever since I was really little I would
you know
play around on the piano and
makeup songs and
sing into my tape player and stuff I've been
composing from a very young age for a very long time
I always try to tell a story with my music which is I hope what sets me apart
sometimes I will write a piece that is
no one is ever going to hear it and it's just
piano in middle-finger minor because I am mad that day and need to just slam at the piano and all that
it's more of a story than it is just a couple of notes that are
bounced around on an treble or bass clef it is a
demonstration of
what's inside of you
I don't know I'd like to compose I'd like to teach I'd like to do instrument-making
and I guess I have that to choose from
I don't have any big plans to do anything huge right now
the piano
has 88 standard keys that's more than any other instrument so to me the
piano is kind of like having
a full orchestra in front of you
yeah it's actually really surreal like I'd never
think that I'd get to have
my work played by a professional symphony orchestra
at 15 years old I mean that's just amazing
I don't know how but music
was something completely different it was that
openness that I hadn't had with any kind of other media it was
being able to be vulnerable and okay with it
