For Our Second Project of Senior Year we were asked to go back to the Recording Studio, switching our role from artists to producers.
About Fiona Lao
Fiona Lao is a talented local pianist who agreed to play the piano for my project. She was born in Singapore but she was raised in Vancouver. After college she worked in marketing but she didn’t want to do only that with her life, so she went back to her first love: teaching piano. She also started playing music for fun. She is also talented in flute and accordion, though my song only required her talents in piano. I met her through Mr. Florendo who knows her well from doing this project many times with other students.

⏸ Golden
For our senior music recording project, we were put into the role of producer of the music instead of the performer. For my performance, I chose Fiona Lau, a talented professional pianist, to do a cover of Golden from K-pop Demon Hunters. I chose her for my song and artist because of her experience and talent that has impressed a lot of people. I chose the song because of its ubiquity and because I thought it was very well composed. For me, the experience of doing this project has been quite cool to be on the other side of the recording booth. I also got to learn a new side of the Pro Tools software. Overall this project was a very fun and interesting experience.
