Geoff Hill
Hi! I am Geoff Hill, a 17 year old in my final year of high school. I live in Auckland, and go to Westlake Boys High School, where I am heavily involved in their music programme. Music has been a massive part of life since I was around seven years old, when I started learning to play the piano. I have played piano ever since, having won top prizes in classical, jazz and composition competitions around the country. I have also branched out into other facets of music, such singing in choirs and playing percussion in various bands. This August, I start a year's study at the famed Interlochen Arts Academy in Michigan. My parents have asked me to make a contribution to considerable expense by funding the cost of two flights to the USA (so I can come home for Christmas!) I would greatly appreciate your help!
For a better idea, here is a video of me playing Rhapsody in Blue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpcXyi9hiMo
