Congratulations to WPMA students Hamin You (a 8th grader) and Ethan Goh (a 10th grader)!
We are incredibly proud of Hamin and Ethan, the winners of the 2024-2025 Samuel Fordis Competition, who took the stage as soloists with the Georgia Philharmonic Orchestra on February 15, 2025, under the baton of the esteemed Tamara Dworetz.
Hamin captivated the audience with a beautiful and expressive performance of Sarasate’s Zigeunerweisen, showcasing his artistry and virtuosity. Ethan followed with a stunning interpretation of Tchaikovsky’s Pezzo Capriccioso, leaving a lasting impression with his rich tone and musical depth.
Hamin is a violin student of Mr William Pu and Ethan is a cello student of Dr. Martin Gueorguiev at the WPMA!
Bravo to these talented young musicians for their outstanding achievements! Their dedication and passion continue to inspire us all. 👏🏻🎻👍🏻🎶
