Hello, my name is Regina Ngo. I am fourteen years of age and will attend Lowell High School this fall. I became interested in music at the age of two and started learning piano at six. I began learning the gu-zheng when I was seven and joined the school orchestra for the violin when I was nine.
I have performed in many concerts as well as competitions, ranking "Superior" and "Superior Command Performance" in string (violin) and piano performance. I was the 2006 gold medal winner on gu-zheng in the International World Cup Folk Instruments Competition, and a winner of the Annual Concerto Competition for piano. I have performed at many festivals and cultural centers throughout the Bay Area, including the Consulate General of the People's Republic of China in San Francisco. In 8th grade, I was the principal of the first violin section, and when I graduated, I received the award for "Most Dedicated Musician" out of all of my 8th grade class.
Other arts play a part in my life as well, such as ballet, tap, jazz, and international traditional folk dancing, and I also previously sang in the Sing Tao Children's Choir. My hobbies, besides music and dancing, include badminton, running, volleyball, community service, and reading.
Though my life has had a lot of music involved, I am never tired of it. It is always exciting to continue on the road and see what is up ahead in the world of music!
