Fourth-grader Danielle Carr performs Chopin for Polish ambassador

May 16, 2017

Worcester Prep fourth-grader Danielle Carr of Lewes placed second in the 9-10-year-old division of the Steinway & Sons Washington Piano Competition in March. This was a highly competitive competition with more than 200 skilled pianists vying for a top position. The top 12 winners were invited by Steinway and the Polish Embassy to perform a special concert March 24.

Danielle and the 11 other competition winners performed a Chopin Concert Showcase at the Polish Ambassador's residence in Washington, D.C., for the ambassador and approximately 100 guests. Chopin was Polish, so this was a tribute to his music and their country. Performing at the venue was an honor and fabulous experience for Danielle to share her skills and learn about a new culture.
