Rebecca began studying violin at the age of five with Heilwig von Konigslow in Langley, BC and has been studying with Ken Stromberg since her family's move to Kelowna eight years ago. She represented Kelowna at the BC Provincial Music Festival in 2010 and 2011 and was runner-up in Junior Strings on both occasions. Highlights in 2011 included performing with David Greenberg and the Okanagan Symphony Orchestra in a Vivaldi quartet, as soloist with the Kelowna Canada Day Pops Orchestra at Prospera Place, and as featured artist at a benefit concert for the Vernon Hospice House. Last July, she had the opportunity to study with Michael van der Sloot at the Summer Strings Academy in Victoria. She is extremely thankful for all of the kind encouragement and support from audience members around the valley, and for the opportunities she has been given, such as becoming a community player with the OSO in September 2011. Rebecca completed her grade 9 piano with Lorna Paterson at KCMS, her grade 10 violin, and is currently working on her Performers ARCT. She is a grade 10 student at Kelowna Secondary School where she plays piano in jazz band and sings in several school ensembles. This is her seventh year with the Youth Symphony of the Okanagan.
