Contestant's Short Biography:

Nyla Bajaj is a 13-year-old student of Grade 7 in Mumbai, India. She has been playing the piano and giving public
piano performances with the Children's Orchestra of India long before her feet could reach the pedals. She also
studies Solfeggio and music theory as a part of her musical training. Nyla reads avidly, and when she isn't curled
up with a book, she's usually halfway through writing an unfinished 'novel' of her own. She is fascinated by
computer coding and animation; is drawn to science, especially anything to do with animals; loves painting people;
and dreams of becoming a naturalist and explorer when she grows up. Her latest passion is skateboarding.

Repertoire, additional information:

Toccatina is taken from Twenty-four Pieces for Children (also 24 Pieces for Children), Op. 25, a 1936 romantic
piano composition written in all twenty-four major and minor tonalities by Ukrainian pianist and composer Viktor
Kosenko. His piano music may be considered post-romantic, containing eclectic elements of musical nationalism.
Although a particular folk song has never been directly cited in his work, his melodic and harmonic lines are
definitely associated with Ukrainian folk songs, and also with the Dorian, Lydian, and Phrygian mode used
extensively in his compositions.

Franz Schubert wrote two Scherzos, D 593, for solo piano. The first, dance-like, graceful Scherzo is in B-flat major.
Franz Schubert's scherzos were right at the beginning of a development that, in the course of the 19th century,
resulted in the separation of the scherzo from the sonata and its emancipation as an independent piano piece. It
was not his large piano sonatas, but rather his short, characteristic pieces that established Franz Schubert’s fame.
Like his art songs, they too are full of spontaneous, lyrical inspiration. The two greatly charming Scherzi, D. 593,
presumably composed already in 1817, stand at the threshold of Schubert’s phase of dance compositions for the
piano.
