Sarah: A Music Visionary

sarah

Born into a musical family, Sarah’s journey began at the age of five when her father, a composer and her first mentor, introduced her to classical piano and flute. Inspired by his guidance, she not only performed his solo piano works but also embraced composing as a shared passion, laying the foundation for her future as a musician, composer, and educator.
Though she graduated with a degree in Physics, Sarah’s love for music led her to pursue advanced studies at Carnegie Mellon University and Boston University. During this time, she immersed herself in diverse genres, including Jazz, Latin, Pop, R&B, New Age, and Oriental music. This exploration revealed a unique opportunity: to reimagine beautiful compositions from across genres and cultures for the piano. Driven by a sense of duty and creativity, Sarah began crafting intricate piano arrangements that preserved the soul of the original works while showcasing the instrument’s full orchestral potential. Even simple melodies were transformed into rich, harmonically complex piano solos, offering fresh interpretations of timeless music.
In July 2014, Sarah released her debut album, Smooth Sensual, featuring stunning piano arrangements of eight popular songs, including Almost is Never Enough, How Deep is Your Love, and Never Had a Dream Come True. This album marked the beginning of her mission to reintroduce the world to beautiful music through the piano. By early 2015, Sarah took her artistry to the next level, composing her own original piano music. Her second album, Colour Dreams, released in November 2015, showcased her first collection of original compositions in a contemporary lyrical style, blending elements of Jazz, Pop, and New Age. Tracks like Deep Blue, Mirror of Regrets, and When Love Begins evoke a spectrum of emotions, offering listeners an intimate and immersive musical experience.
Beyond her artistic achievements, Sarah is a highly educated professional with a Master’s degree in Arts and Culture Management (2017) and a PhD in Business Economics (2022). Her expertise in business economics, particularly in arts and sports events, as well as medical tourism, provides her with a unique interdisciplinary perspective that enriches her approach to music education and management.

She is a renowned piano mentor, consistently guiding students to outstanding results in examinations and performances. Many of her students have excelled both academically and in live performances, a testament to her dedication and expertise.
