Help to Akulina to become a professional pianist

Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters,

I am Akulina and I am 16 years old and 12 years of them I have been living within the music, being learning, having the countless hours of hard work, playing the piano.

Now we are collecting the means for 2 trips in Europe for me and my mum:

1) the 1st half of 2024 to attend in musical competitions and visit and choose a conservatory.

2)to attend in musical competitions as well and to entry to the chosen conservatory in the second half of 2024.

Now it has come very important moment of my life when I really need to attend in European Musician Competition for my further growth as musician and the opportunity for the future music studying in a conservatory in Europe.

I am preparing to attend several competitions. From them are European Musician competitions as online (North International Music Competition, World's Best Musicians Competition) also as off-line (VCMA International Classical Music Competition "Spring", International Showcase Music Competition, 4seasons Vienna International Young Musician Competition), where I will be a representative of Turkey (Balikesir).

Since 4 years old, I have been playing the piano, starting only with the one aim to heal my health issues. But later I really fell in love with the music and I am dreaming to be the professional musician. My dream is playing the organ within the pieces of Bach, who is my favorite composer. These days I am only playing his pieces within the piano. Also I would like so much to play with an orchestra.

This year I have successfully attended in the international competitions in Turkey (Istanbul, Izmir, Bursa). Before that I was awarded plenty times for the participation in national competitions.

To realize my dream, it requires to apply to a conservatory the nearest years and before that I need to go on with hard working and participate in a lot of the European competitions. Also, it is needed to visit educational institution and meet with teachers.

So as you can imagine, participating in an international competition of this magnitude comes with significant expenses for me and my mum, who will support me along on this way. It will include costs for travel, accommodation, competition fees, and visits to institutes.

That's why I am humbly reaching out to you, my friends, family, and community, to ask for your support. My family (mum, dad, younger sisters and brother) fully support me, but they don't have no enough means to cover these costs.

That's why we've set up this GoFundMe page.

Please consider that the contributing to my GoFundMe campaign and sharing it with your networks. Your support means the world to me, and I am incredibly grateful for any help you can provide.

Thank you for being a part of this exciting chapter in my life and for helping me to be the representative Turkey at the European Music competitions.

Moreover, your support is not just an investment in my journey but also in the promotion of music as the magic power that develops the sense of beauty, harmony and unity among people from all walks of life.

With best regards,

Akulina
