  - Comparison between French and German dance

  - Audiences will see two kinds of classical music and know that musical styles were changed due to the compositional purpose.

First of all, I love to draw. I think music and art (painting) are good combinations for creating something new and meaningful to people.
Secondly, I love to teach. I think when we have a discussion with someone, positively, we are creating a bond. Studying music is not study only music, we need to study about social, politic, history, science, etc. Everything is connected. And I want to share what I know to those who have no opportunity as I do.
In my opinion, I can continue working on this project in the future, trying to make it more advanced and specific. And yes, I can record my performance along with the visual that I have done into a CD, to be used as a learning tool.
