OHMYGOSSIP – Estella Elisheva is an 11-year-old girl from Tallinn who already knows today that in the future she will become a violinist. “I am very fond of music, especially classical music,” tells the young music friend from Tallinn Jewish School to OHMYGOSSIPteen.
„When I grow up I wish to become a violinist or an opera singer, or both. I would love to be a solo artist as well as perform with an orchestra. However, at the moment I am still very young and these are grand future plans. I like to practice, and sometimes my friend would not understand why I do not go out to play with them, it is because I practice.”
Estella Elisheva is a versatile girl and besides playing the violin she also has other hobbies. „I actually have quite many hobbies. I like to sing and for many years I have taken ballroom dancing lessons. And whenever I sing, I like to sing the opera. My voice breadth is quite good and it goes quite high up. For example the Phantom of the Opera I can sing up until the highest note. And it is a matter of practice, I have not trained my voice properly, only once in a while at home for my own sake. In addition to that I like art, drawing and theatre! The latter is really high standard in Estonia. Both Tartu and Tallinn theatres are visited by world renown artists and seeing them perform is very delightful. I sometimes skip a schoolday to go to the theatre or to practice the violin. I am looking forward to seeing the opera „Carmen” once more in Vanemuise theatre hall. And I wouldn’t get tired of seeing the Phantom of the Opera!”
Estella Elisheva, having given many minor concerts, says that a serious concert isn’t something she would consider before graduating from music school. „I publish posts of me playing the violin to Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and Twitter and I am glad to see that many people like that, however, I still got the feeling that there is plenty, plenty of room for progress. Perhaps I am okay for an 11-year-old, but I wouldn’t wanna play the noted classics in a fashion that makes them turn in their grave,” laughs Estella Elisheva.
