Sirena Huang, one of her generation’s most celebrated violinists, will give a wonderful introduction to the repertoire of the violin appropriate for children, families, and adults. Huang made her solo debut with the National Taiwan Symphony Orchestra in 2004 at the age of 9, and she has since performed in 17 countries across three continents. She has been featured as a soloist with more than 50 prestigious ensembles. Motivated by a deep wish to inspire peace and harmony with her music, Huang has performed before world leaders, thinkers, and humanitarians. At age 11, she gave a TED talk that garnered more than 2.5 million views. In 2006 she received the honor of playing for 30 Nobel Prize laureates at the World Peace Conference held in Petra, Jordan.
