SAN
DIEGO, Aug. 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/
-- Wilshire Quinn Capital, Inc. announces pianist
Evelyn Dimov as the recipient of the
2022 Wilshire Quinn Musical Arts Scholarship. Wilshire Quinn will be applying $10,000 towards her upcoming fall enrollment at
the Manhattan School of Music in New
York City.
Wilshire Quinn received over
1,000 scholarship applications from music majors around
the United States, each of which
included personal statements and video performances.
Dimov, whose stage name is Evelyn
Diamant, recently accepted an offer to attend the
Manhattan School of Music, one of the
country's top independent music conservatories.
Evelyn is an accomplished pianist from Palo Alto, California and began competing in
music competitions at the age of eight. She has won multiple
competitions, including the El Camino Youth Symphony Concerto
Competition, Glendale Piano Competition, and VII Rosario Marciano
Piano Competition.
Evelyn's talents have also empowered her to perform at music
festivals around the world, in such places as Italy, Spain,
Russia, France, and Switzerland.
"We are excited to grant this year's musical arts scholarship to
Evelyn and applaud her unique musical talents," said Wilshire Quinn
Capital CEO Christopher M. Garcia.
"Evelyn's performance and personal statement were phenomenal, and
her long list of musical achievements should be recognized.
While listening to Evelyn play the piano, we are reminded of
music's spiritual force and its ability to connect people from all
walks of life—something that Evelyn continues to accomplish by
performing around the world as a young musician."
Some of Evelyn's musical influences include Vladimir Horowitz, Martha Argerich, Sofya
Gulyak, and Alexander
Kobrin. While Evelyn does not have a favorite musical
genre, she does enjoy classical, rock, indie, and pop and its
various subgenres.
"I find inspiration anywhere and everywhere. My musical
aspirations are to simply strive to be the best I can be and to
always maximally enjoy the process of working on music and
everything that comes with it," Dimov said. "I'm really looking
forward to my first year at the wonderful Manhattan School of Music, getting attuned to the
new environment and experiencing everything conservatory life has
to offer."
