Bodam Lee Takes Third Place at the National Finals of “Jugend musiziert”

Bodam Lee (9b) returned extremely pleased from her first appearance at the national finals of “Jugend Musiziert,” the German Music Council’s competition for young musicians. More than 80 participants from Germany had qualified for the finals in Kassel in the violin/age group IV category, including six musicians from Hesse and Bodam Lee, our student.

In her performance, she presented a mix of classical and modern styles—from Beethoven’s Sonata No. 3 in E-flat major, Op. 12, to Isang Yun’s *Li-Na im Garten* —and considered her third-place finish a fitting recognition of her performance and the effort she put into preparing for it.
