I would like to talk about one of my best friends who is exceptionally talented at music. I’ve known her from childhood and since then she was interested in music and she wanted to become an artist. Although she was forced to study engineering at university by her parents, she never gave and she tries to learn everything about music and singing. She can easily actually engage people in the audience and she can perform her performance are really compelling but what is really impressive about her is her ability to write meaningful lyrics which can convey the sentiments and emotions in her songs and it’s really important for a singer and a songwriter. Another thing which is really important in Sarah is her ability to engage people with her sense of melody and because whenever she starts singing in in a gathering or birthday party, we start to sing along to her because her music is really incredibly actually enjoyable. Another thing that I would like to talk about, Sarah, is her ability to perform in a variety of genres such as pop music, classical music or even jazz and she can perform well in different genres with her smooth voice and overall she is an interesting singer and songwriter who has left a lasting impression on me and she comes across as a determined and hard-working, gale with big dreams and with a lot of confidence and courage.
