Hi, my name is Daria. I've lived in Ottawa my whole life and this is my first year at Elmwood. I like to spend time with my family, read books, and play games through FaceTime. An interesting fact about myself is that I love Pringles and iced tea.
I have played clarinet since Grade 5 but I only started taking it seriously in Grade 7. This was my first year taking a music class and I would definitely do it again!
This character theme is based on Olaf from the film Frozen. I tried to make my piece bouncy, bubbly, and light to show Olaf’s personality. I used Celesta to show the light and bouncy part and piano to show that Olaf has a personality which is easy to tell what he likes and wants. I created the composition in 4/4 for it to be a simple but fast piece to show to reflect his upbeat demeanour.
