What do you hope to do after graduation or your more long-term goals?

“Get my Bachelors and a Masters or two - after that, I’m not quite sure yet but I hope to travel a lot!”

A favorite, or memorable AYPO experience?

“The camaraderie of the bass section! I feel like we all get along really well and are supportive of one another, which makes it a great environment to play in.”

What musician, conductor, or orchestra inspires you and why?

“My Great Grandfather, Norman Irvine - he played bass professionally his whole life and never turned down an opportunity to perform. His ability to play different musical styles and genres really inspires me to be a versatile musician that others can rely on.”

Your advice for young musicians?

“Stick it out even when it’s hard. It’s easy to give up but you gain so much from playing music and the challenge is always worth it. Also, start using a metronome asap!”

Congratulations, Nina!
