About Me

“Music is sonorous air. It's extraordinary to think that a simple vibration unseen by the human eye can facilitate a deeply rich emotional experience, alter perception and consciousness, and induce ecstatic states of being”. I'm blessed to have this talent to use my music to create a beautiful world. Who am I? I am a composer, a clarinetist, a music teacher and a dream chaser. I want to express my feelings rather than illustrate them. I started playing electric piano when I was three, and began to play clarinet at the age of nine, and learnt composition at the age of twenty. My work is a constant search for the best way to interpret the thoughts that I have about myself and the world I live in. I do not limit myself to only one specific music style. Each music piece I compose is simultaneously an extension from the past, where I’ve come from and what I’ve learnt, as well as a preview of the future, where I’m going. You may see different composers in my works. Yes, I enrich myself from their music. Life seems to go on without effort when I am filled with music. If a listener stops for just a moment to empathize on a piece I have composed, then I have succeeded in my work.
