Anna Walters
Anna Walters, junior
Carnegie Hall program acceptance, performed at Carnegie Hall on Feb 22.
Q1: Please describe your experience at Carnegie Hall and why you were able to perform there.
A1: My experience working with the honors performance series choir and performing at Carnegie Hall was simply incredible and once in a lifetime. My voice teacher, Joan Boytim, nominated me for the program. I sent my audition recording in the summer and received an acceptance email to the program in October along with the music we needed to memorize.
Q2: Would you say that singing is your biggest passion? If so, why?
A2: I would whole-heartedly say that music in general is my passion, and I’ve been granted experiences in the past few years that have made me a better vocalist as well as person in general.
Q3: What are some other hobbies you have?
A3: Along with [singing], I enjoy learning to play guitar and piano, watching endless reruns of the High School Musical moves, and redecoration my room with Pinterest crafts and finds.
Q4: Are you looking to become involved with a music profession later on in life?
A4: Post-high school, I hope to earn my pastoral degree at Liberty University in worship arts and continue my music career in the missions field.

Go Anna! Anna Walters is not only an amazing singer (I hear her in Chambers every day and let me just say WOW), but she is such an amazing person. She balances her voice lessons, coffeehouse, a job (see her smiling face folding shirts at Old Navy), musical, AND honors and AP classes. On top of all this, she is one of the sweetest people I know. She is friends with anyone and has such a good, positive outlook on life. She makes me want to be a better person!
