my life as a Juilliard pianist from Australia ✨||+ Rush E, audition tips, practice methods

Welcome to my first video :)) I finally got around to creating a channel!! I just wanted to do a 'get to know me' vid by answering some questions I got from my instagram @lucialipiano and from a piano master class I gave in Australia recently. I'm a pianist from Sydney, Australia and I moved to New York City 6 years ago to pursue music. So now I'm a third year undergrad at Juilliard. There were quite a few questions about how to apply to Juilliard and what the audition process was like so I hope that my insight is helpful! I also talk about my top two practice rules. A friend challenged me on ig to play Rush E (the playable version ofc) so you can see me struggle through that. I set a time limit of 30 mins to learn and record it because I needed to cram my other work but it was still fun! Looking forward to posting more videos including projects, vlogs (e.g. day in the life of a juilliard student, competition prep, concert prep, etc), 'how to' vids, and collaborations! Really excited about what's to come :) Ask any questions down below! Love, Lucia Li Here are the times for the questions I answered: 00:15/ Intro 01:37 / Q1: how long have you been playing the piano? 02:07 / Q2: myer briggs personality type? 02:37 / Q3: is it important to study music overseas? 03:19 / Q4: the most effective practice methods? 04:20 / Q5: plans for the year? 05:40 / Q6: Juilliard audition prep? 07:40 / Q7: how do you apply to Juilliard? 10:47 / Q8: Rush E but played by a real person? background lofi beat by me: based on Ravel’s Pavane pour une infante défunte
