About the event
May Li, aged 15, is a versatile young musician, exploring various instruments: piano, cello and clarinet. She has studied piano under Elena Nikulina for 8 years, and with Elena's support, she excelled in previous exams and is now preparing for her AMusA piano exam. May has won numerous awards in piano competitions, including the Australian National Eisteddfod and the ACT Keyboard Association.
The student’s teacher, Elena Nikulina, has striven to maximise the potential of every individual student since opening her studio 17 years ago. Through her unique and evolving teaching methodology, all students are exposed to a range of music that allows them to develop their playing skills, gain a deep musical understanding, and cultivate a lifelong joy in music. Their development is further enhanced through competitions, as well as public and studio concerts. Elena welcomes anyone who is willing to work hard and enjoy their musical journey. The Australian Music Examination Board (AMEB) recognized Elena's excellence by awarding her a Certificate of Distinction in 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023, as one of the ten most outstanding music teachers in the ACT and NSW. Additionally, in 2017, 2022 and 2023, Elena received the prestigious AMEB award for ‘Most Outstanding Teacher – Keyboard category, Preliminary to Grade 6’.
