16 year old Isabel plays in a jazz band and dances twice a week at Studio Simoncini.
“Music and dance are strongly connected with each other,” she explains. Ballet is helping me as a musician because with ballet you have to feel the music and time your movements very precisely. It is also helpful to develop your stage presence”.
From the age of three Isabel gives mini concerts with her parents. When she is six years old she starts playing the guitar and sees a lot of the world because her parents move from Jordan to Argentina, South Korea, Germany and finally back to the Netherlands.
Isabel has plenty of dreams for the future, she would like to study journalism or international law. She has therefore opted for studying at The International School of The Hague.
“I don’t think I can become a professional dancer” she laughs “But I do dream of a career as a singer. I am aware that there are a million other musicians with that same dream but when I make music, it feels completely natural and even though the dream seems far away, I believe for a moment that it could become reality”. 🎸🫶🏻
