“I added recordings of my performances because I wanted to show how I play my instruments and how much I’ve progressed over time. Looking back at them, I can see the improvements I’ve made through practice, experience, and dedication. They reflect not just the development of my skills, but also my growing confidence and enjoyment of performing.”

Some of my more interesting facts of music and playing as a performer is that I have sang in La Bohème in the festival theatre,in a Marde gras in Salvador Brazil and that I sing with Nycos. I also help teach in my Community brass band called brass blast that's run by Oi musica.

“I play the cajón, and my main role is to keep the tempo steady and make sure the music flows naturally throughout the performance. I pay close attention to timing, rhythm, and the other performers so that everyone stays together and the performance remains consistent from beginning to end. I understand that rhythm is important because it gives structure and helps the whole group stay connected. Other people have said that if I wasn’t there, the performance would go out of time, which shows that I play an important supporting role within the group. I enjoy being someone the team can rely on because I help create stability, support other performers, and contribute to a stronger overall performance.”

I added this because I feel it really shows my ability to create and read music at a high level. I think it reflects both the technical and creative skills I have developed over time. Reading music helps me understand things like rhythm, timing, dynamics, and expression, while creating music gives me the chance to develop my own ideas and bring something personal into my work. I feel this piece shows a balance between accuracy and creativity, which is something I have continued to improve through practice and experience. I wanted to include it because I think it gives a good insight into my musical ability and shows the progress I have made as a performer and musician.
