Josie Larsen is one of two students chosen to represent the School of Music for the 2021 convocation. She will record a vocal performance of “Spring Waters” by Rachmaninoff, with senior Greg Smith on piano.
Her interest in singing began at age 11, and while Larsen's vocal talent speaks for itself, she wasn't always sure if it was a good fit. But after praying for guidance, she knew that singing would be a vital part of her future. Larson is now on course to graduate this week with a BA in vocal performance. She is also the president of the BYU Singers, the top choral group in the School of Music, of which she has been a member since her freshman year. Throughout her years as an undergraduate, Larsen's passion for music has only grown.
“It’s something I have to hold on to and rediscover over and over again,” she said. “Like anything in the arts, it’s easy to get weighed down. I hope that my two-minute performance will encourage people to go forward with hope and faith and continue to do what they love.”
