英国皇家国际艺术比赛2014年中国赛区钢琴比赛一等奖获得者
采访罗凯文父亲：
1.最早是为什么学习钢琴的？
我和凯文妈妈都是艺术工作者，我是在文化部演出管理中心工作做演出工作，他妈妈也是声乐工作者，我们也是有意愿培养孩子学习音乐，钢琴是学习一切音乐的基础，所以就先从钢琴学起了。
2.学习钢琴的道路顺畅吗？
凯文学习钢琴的道路不是很顺畅，他当时在海淀外国语附小上学，课程也很重，没有更多的时间学琴和练琴，在同学们都忙文化课的氛围里，去学习钢琴显得有点不务正业，凯文也需要利用每天中午的时间去练琴。
3.参加英国皇家国际艺术比赛有什么难忘的故事？
凯文是从小学二年级开始学习钢琴的，按说学的也有点晚了，学习了4年后在2014年参加的英皇钢琴比赛，最难忘的是当年的颁奖典礼，三等奖和二等奖都颁完以后，没有听到凯文的名字，他很失落，就拉着我非要提前离开，当我们从三楼下到二楼的时候听到话筒里面一等奖在叫罗凯文的名字，他很激动，三步并作两步就冲上去了，获得一等奖这件事对他鼓舞很大。
4. 目前罗凯文在美国读书，最近在申请美国的音乐学院，英皇比赛获奖这件事情对他帮助大吗？
罗凯文是2016年8月来休斯顿读书的，学校全称Westbury Christian School，他们学校有一位乐团指挥Michel Smith老师，知道凯文会演奏钢琴和马林巴，并且是2014年英皇钢琴比赛中国赛区一等奖，就推荐凯文去Texas All State Band，一个专业的艺术学校，申请的这所学校知道凯文的经历后也特别希望凯文能来入学，当时凯文回复邮件说，我的生物成绩不太好，但是Texas All State Band回复说我们全体师生都可以帮助你，所以凯文的专业和获奖经历对他帮助很大。
目前凯文正在申请5所美国的艺术大学，并把英皇钢琴比赛一等奖放到了申请里面，美国学校非常重视，他们认为这是一个很重要的国际奖项，我和凯文妈妈也是行业内人士，其实当时凯文在海淀外国语附小读书的时候获得这个奖项并没有得到学校国际部更多的关注，很多家长也不是太了解，这个奖项对于孩子升学尤其以后出国留学是非常重要的，在美国得到很大重视，我想在英联邦国家应该更是如此了。
Westbury Christian School的邀请入学邮件
HI Kevin,
It's nice to meet you via email. I am the percussion teacher at the Academy and I'm happy to help with any questions you might have regarding the percussion department. I have attached some information that should help you get acquainted with the program as well.
I would agree, oming for this Fall, although short notice, would be the best thing. One of the many highlights for next year is a performance of Reich Drumming, in conjunction with Matt Duval (Eighth Blackbird) and Third Coast Percussion. It would be wonderful if you could be involved.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello Kevin,
Thanks so much for your email and interest in Interlochen Arts Academy! I am thrilled to learn of your passion for percussion and piano. We have tremendous programs here in both of those instrument areas. It is most common with someone who plays multiple instruments like yourself to major in percussion and take secondary lessons in piano. I'd be happy to talk with you further about how this might be done.
Regarding your question about your biology grade, we have worked with students who may be particularly challenged in a one or two subject areas. What would be most helpful is for you to start your application and upload your transcript and percussion and piano audition so that we can best guide through this process. It is extraordinarily rare for us to admit a student for the Spring, 2018 semester, so I would greatly encourage you to pursue an application for 2017 Fall. It is definitely not too late to apply but we would want you to complete as soon as possible for us to begin the student visa process. I'm including a helpful link here on how to begin.
Please review and let me know if you have any questions. In the meantime, I will reach out to our Academy Percussion faculty, Keith Aleo, to let him know about your interest in Percussion. I'd encourage you to take a look at the videos he has
