Mozart's Accomplishments

The hostile staccato of the conductors’ demands cut through the pressure that was quite apparent in the Rice University concert hall. Sweating and focused, my orchestral troop fought through every movement of Tchaikovsky's romantic escapades and Mozart's baroque form of music. I treated my high school career as an unending overture full of experiences that created the composition of my life. From the presto of various HOSA competitions and the steady andante of missionary work, life has become an orchestra and I have found myself living through various “tempos and rhythms” that shape me to achieve the final movement- pediatrics.

    Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was one of the most influential public figures in 18th-century Vienna. His impact on the public is evident in two of his most influential works — an opera, The Abduction from the Seraglio, and an instrumental piece, Violin Concert No. 5.

In The Abduction from the Seraglio, Mozart paints a vivid picture of Turkish culture.…

    I learned the need to work well in advance of the deadline. Musical details may be different than academic details, but just as slight differences in tone and pitch can completely change the music’s meaning, every detail, regardless of how small, matters in all subjects. Whether it’s a math problem or a novel, my heightened attention to detail helps me to better identify the correct steps or the overall theme. As high-school progressed it became more and more evident that relying on natural abilities doesn’t equate to achieving…
