Nathaniel

My name is Nathaniel Caballeros. I am 12 years old and I am in 7th grade. I live in Stamford Connecticut and I play the violin and viola at INTEMPO. I have learned so many things over the years.

They have taught me everything necessary to play my instruments correctly. My teacher has talked to me about my form, my intonation, and my finger placement. One of my favorite pieces to play is the Telemann Concerto in G Major for the Viola.

I like to practice my instrument and listening to music is a big part of my day. I have another hobby, which is playing hockey. In school one of my favorite subjects is science. I like science because it uses a lot of rationality and evidence.

In science we carry out experiments to apply the right variables to our subject. This helps me break down things to see what I can change, like some factors of how I play my instrument. In the future, I am not exactly sure what career I want to try, but I want to be involved with some kind of science, going into particle physics. I also want to continue music and learning in the future.
