About
Konnichiwa. My name is Anderson, and I'm 16 years old.I'm a high school junior participating in the IB Program. I am currently signed up for IB Music Theory as well as several other IB classes.
I've been playing the violin ever since I was in 4th grade. I'm still not very good at it, but I can play pretty well!
I've been teaching myself to play the piano since the summer before Freshmen year, which was 2 years ago.
Using the treble clef and comparing the notes on the bass clef to their position on the piano, I successfully learned how to read piano sheet music, which began my passion.
I'm in love with the Classical era than Baroque, simply because I listen to Beethoven and Mozart more often than I do Vivaldi and Bach.
I love playing video game music on the piano as well as anime music! The first song I've ever read on piano was the Final Fantasy I Main Theme!
I've taken Japanese for 2 years, and junior year will start my 3rd year. I guess I sort of started Japanese because of the culture, anime, and simply because of how much impact and debt they have over America.
I practice piano almost every day for about 3-4 hours total. However, it's going to be pretty hard keeping this up during junior year of high school!
I would like to thank experienced music students such as Lord Sreder, and students from the Gaian Music Academy.

SO how do you like nodame cantabile? It's definitely one of my favorite anime to watch. Some time if you ever get around to it, they made a real live drama series off of it and that one i s fantastic because they actually show people playing their instruments.
