Music Camp for Brian, an Aspiring Pianist

Posted Mar 28, 2017
Brian (an 18 year old college Freshman) has been accepted to the Brevard Music Center Summer Institute in North Carolina. Brian has been playing the piano since he was 8 years old, and would like to attend the summer institute at Brevard to improve his musical knowledge and skills, and to make professional connections that may help him to advance his future career.

Brian is 25 years old and lives in NJ

Brian is currently a Junior at Rutgers University, majoring in music performance (piano). Brian is incredibly passionate about classical music, and would one day like to be a professional pianist and orchestra conductor. Brian was a teenager when he entered foster care, and has worked extremely hard to be a successful college student. Brian has been a very dedicated student, and currently maintains a 3.6 cumulative GPA at Rutgers. Brian is very proactive in seeking opportunities to build upon his music education, and he performs in and attends many classical music concerts in the NJ/NY area. Brian recently conducted his first opera performance at Rutgers and would like to gain additional experience in orchestral conducting.
