Sy is net 12 jaar oud en die Paarlse pianis Olivia Malan maak reeds opslae as \u2019n finalis van \u2019n nasionale musiekkompetisie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vanuit al die oudisies vir die Hubert van der Spuy- nasionale musiekkompetisie wat plaasgevind het, is di\u00e9 meisie onlangs uitgewys as een van 22 finaliste van die Wes-Kaap wat om die wentitel sal meeding. Volgens Olivia is dit die eerste keer dat sy vir di\u00e9 kompetisie kwalifiseer en daaraan deelneem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk is opgewonde, trots en nogal senuweeagtig as ek dink aan die Hubert van der Spuy- kompetisie wat voorl\u00ea, en ek dink dit gaan \u2019n wonderlike ervaring wees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk dink ek kan dalk die kompetisie wen as ek hard oefen, my beste gee en elke oomblik daarvan geniet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk sien uit na hierdie geleentheid om klavier te speel vir \u2019n program met sulke ho\u00eb standaarde. Ek is ook opgewonde om die ander deelnemers te sien speel en by hulle te leer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Olivia vertel sy het in Januarie 2019 begin met klavierlesse en sy speel sedertdien vir die afgelope vyf en \u2019n half jaar sonder ophou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk hou baie van klavier speel, want ek voel om klavier te speel maak alles beter. Dit is ook my manier om van oorweldigende emosies ontslae te raak. Daar is iets betowerend daaraan om uit te stap op \u2019n verhoog en jou klavierspel met passie te deel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs ek klavier speel voel dit asof ek al my gevoelens tot in die note stoot, en as ek in \u2019n uitvoering \u2019n fout maak kom selfs ek dit gewoonlik nie eens agter nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk leef heeltemal in die oomblik, in plaas daarvan om bang te wees vir wat volgende kom.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Buiten die klavier neem Olivia ook lesse om die tjello te kan speel. Sy het voorheen ook lesse geneem vir die dromme en ukulele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yoland\u00e9 Malan beskryf haar dogter as \u2019n vriendelike en saggeaarde mens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOlivia is nie bang vir uitdagings nie. Sy gee altyd 100% in alles wat sy doen. Sy sien kans vir enigiets en word nie sommer ontmoedig deur \u2019n moeilike opdrag nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns noem haar soms Olivia \u2018Plannetjies\u2019 Malan, want sy het altyd vir alles \u2019n oplossing. Sy is baie kreatief en kan haarself besig hou met allerhande projekte. Sy is alewig besig om iets te maak of te skep.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Malan vertel dat haar Olivia, \u2019n graad 6-leerder aan Green School, ook \u2019n balletdanser is wat in \u2019n paar vertonings opgetree het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSy het al drie keer in die Kunstekaap aan verskillende balletopvoerings deelgeneem. Dit is A Christmas Carol<\/span>, Romeo and Juliet<\/span> en The Nutcracker<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBallet is \u2019n ander groot liefde waarmee sy haar graag besig hou en sy is \u2019n kranige swemmer. Sy hou ook baie van lees en ons as \u2019n gesin stap graag. Haar stokperdjies is naaldwerk en om kuns te doen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Malan s\u00ea sy en die res van die familie sien daarna uit om vir Olivia te ondersteun in die kompetisie. Voorheen, in 2022, het sy die Shane Goodall Junior Klavier-toekenning ontvang by die Hugo Lambrechts Musiekskool, en in 2023 het sy die prys vir beste junior musiekleerling by Hugo Lambrechts gewen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOlivia het Unisa graad 2 en 3 [klavier- eksamens] in een jaar gespeel. Ek is trots op haar en ek is saam met haar opgewonde om te kan deelneem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cEk dink dit gaan \u2019n wonderlike ervaring wees en dit is \u2019n groot voorreg om te kan deelneem aan die Hubert van der Spuy-kompetisie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cEk s\u00ea gereeld vir haar hoe wonderlik dit is dat sy vir ons na sulke lekker plekke soos Kunstekaap en musiek- uitvoerings neem en so ons w\u00eareld vergroot.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sy is net 12 jaar oud en die Paarlse pianis Olivia Malan maak reeds opslae as \u2019n finalis van \u2019n nasionale
