MOSES LAKE — Lydia Jensen will represent Moses Lake at the Washington State Music Teachers Association’s annual conference in Winthrop on June 26, according to an announcement from piano instructor Marina Munter.
Jensen, a 2023 graduate of Moses Lake High School, is a student of Gracie Payne, according to the announcement. She has been playing piano since she was 5, the announcement said. She took up the violin when she was 10, it said, but time constraints forced her to choose between the two instruments and she picked the piano.
Jensen was selected to perform by Dr. Jody Graves, visiting artist for the Washington Music Artistry Program, which was held March 17-18 in Moses Lake. Jensen will perform “Prelude in C Sharp Minor Op.3 N.2” by Sergei Rachmaninoff, according to the announcement.
Jensen is preparing to go on a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the announcement said, and will attend Brigham Young University after that.
