My name is Guo Peiling. I am 19 years old. I am from lanzhou of china. It is a small town. It is in the north west of china.
I have study music 7 years. I played my instrument when iwas 12 years old. My instrument is bassoon. I have two major teachers. One is Song Zhihong. He is a bassoon teacher in the Shanghai music middle school. The other one is Zhang Jinming. He is a bassoon teacher and a wind systerm director. And my parents all are desingers. So i think maybe it has some conection between that!
It is a easy reason for i study music. One day i was warching TV. Suddenly i saw the piano on TV. All of a sudden i want to play piano. And then i told to my mother. He told that to my father. Finally, my father told to his friend. His friend`s daughter is play piano and study piano in Shanghai music school. This friend adviced my father that let me to learn one instrumen too like his daughter. My father thought it is a good idear. So this friend said bassoon is a good instrment and do not have so many people to learn it. Because it is too expensive and rare. My father said ok.
And then iwent to the teacher` s home. The luckly thing is he had bought one new bassoon. My father ask me that do you want to learn it? I had not any hesitated and said no problem. Then my father gave money to teacher to bought this bassoon and i became to his student. When i learned one month later that my father`s friend asked me that do you want to admitted to Shanghai music middle school? I said no problem too.
I remember that time was my five grade in premary school. I never leave any imformation to my school teaher and classmate. I went to shanghai. I met my first really bassoon teacher in shanghai. And he suggestioned that we stay shanghai was better. I and my mother just stay ther. But it keeps one year. I miss my hometown very much. And i admitted into Shanghai music middle shool. When i graduated from high school. Some stuent told me that has a fantasy music school in singapore.
I still have not think a lot things about it. I just to attend the interview. And i passed.
The history just like that! I want to say thaks to my parents, that friend and my two teachers. They are all infuence to me!

Dear Peiling,
ReplyDeleteYour story is really quite inspiring. You must have been very talented even from such a young age for the teacher to suggest that you should go to a music school after only one month. And I can see that your parents were really very supportive of you. They were willing to let you learn what you showed interest in and they made all the changes necessary to support you, for example, your mother moving to Shanghai to allow you to study there. Thank you for sharing your story.
