大家好，我是Helen Sellers，来自上海燎原双语学校英文部G12-1美国班。在过去的半年里，我为申请美国的音乐学院做了很多的准备，接下来我想和大家分享一下。

Hello, everyone, this is Helen Sellers, fromG12-1 American class. Over the past six months, I've made a lot of preparationsfor applying to the music schools in the United States. I want to share withyou my experience.

当时我一共申请了八所学校，在完成学校课业的同时，也是在疯狂地填写各种资料，准备各种文书，还写了不少个人简历。不仅如此，也感谢我的班主任Jennifer、学生处主任Lee，还有我的音乐专业老师给我写的推荐信，这些都是帮助我之后申请学校成功的必备文书材料。

My music training center helped me applyfor a total of eight schools. While I was working hard to complete schoolwork,I was also frantically filling out a variety of materials, and writing a lot ofpersonal essays. Apart from that, I also want to thank my head teacherJennifer, Student Affairs Director Lee, and my music teacher Mr. Ma for writingrecommendation letters for me. These are the foundations that helped me applyfor school success after that.

伯克利音乐学院offer

在去年十月初的时候我录制完成了我的作品集，在十一月的时候，基本完成了大部分学校的线上面试和试题。十二月初，我迎来了理想中的伯克利音乐学院的面试。我为这次面试倾注了我所有的心思和情绪，感谢指导老师对我所有的指导帮助，让我在面试中发挥了实际水准, 没有什么失误。

At the beginning of last October, Ifinished my music portfolio. In November, I basically completed most of theschool online interviews and test questions. In early December, BerkleeConservatory of Music, my dream school, called me for an interview. I pouredall my thoughts and emotions into this interview. Thanks to Mr. Ma for all myguidance help, I completed the interview with my actual ability. No bigmistakes.

经过了漫长的等待，当然也陆续拿到了一些名校的录取。最让我最开心的是在今年的二月一号拿到了伯克利发来的offer!

After a long waiting period of time, I graduallygot some famous schools’ offers. What knocks me down is that I finally got theoffer from Berklee on February 1, 2019.

尽管如此，我并没有就此放松懈怠下来。在十二年级的最后一个学期里，我有自己的大计划。

Despite the offer, I didn't relax and slackoff. In the last semester of the G12, I have two big plans.

**个计划：录制一张专辑

First: Record a studio album

这张专辑将会由10首歌组成，里面*括大家耳熟能详的“光年之外”的翻唱，还有许多英文流行歌曲的翻唱，抒情流行歌曲、以及爵士音乐的翻唱。

The album consists of 10 songs. It includesthe familiar "Light years away" flip-flops, as well as the flip-flopsof many English pop songs, lyrical pop songs, and the flip-flops of jazz music.

第二个计划：举办个人演唱会

Second:Hold a Solo Concert

就在今年的6月4日，我将在学校里举行我的个人演唱会，也算是我对自己过去所学到的音乐技巧知识的总结。这次演唱会一共有12首歌曲，歌曲的风格*括Pop、EDM、Rap、Jazz。歌曲的语言有中文、英文和法语。同时，我的专辑也将在6月4日当天进行签售。

On June 4th , 2019, I will holdmy solo concert at school. It is also a presentation of my music skills I havelearned. There will be 12 songs in the concert. The style of the song includesPop, EDM, Rap, Jazz. The language of the songs will be Chinese, English, andFrench. My album will be for sale on the same day.

希望我的音乐和歌声能够带给大家喜悦与力量，也希望大家喜欢。
