Course Details

Being one of the most vocal and prominent stringed orchestral instrument, the cello has become quite eclectic, a lot like the violin. You may hear this instrument as a featured soloist in classical, jazz, broadway and even electric cello in “new age” music. No matter what music you choose, the beauty of the cello will always stand out.

At age 11, after watching a bonus feature video, “The Music in You” from “Barbie-Swan Lake”(an interview of 5 teenage musicians with a clip of the cellist playing Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake theme), she fell in love with the cello. She picked up the cello at age 13 and played in both her high school’s Chinese and Philharmonic Orchestra, also appointed as student conductor.

Her orchestra emerged as overall grand champion and in the latter, she received the excellence award as student conductor. In 2010, the orchestra held a concert trip to Shang Hai, China for another joined concert with the local youth orchestra. Since 2012, Sophia has based herself in Kuala Lumpur as an active teacher and performer, lead vocalist in her former band, Skazz, and current cellist of the Strings Attached Quartet.
