Carl Høy Larsen age 20 - Danish: Carl started playing cello in the local music school in Hjørring when he was 7 years old. And soon he became member of the regional Youth Symphony Orchestra, NUS. Since 2015 he has participated in the yearly “Side by Side” Summer
Camp, organized by GSO (Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra). In 2016 during the Camp he had his first cello lesson with
Peter Schöning. Peter is a very inspiring teacher, and Carl decided to pursue a career as a cellist, practicing hard with his
cello and traveling to Gothenborg several times a year.

finished his Elementary School in Denmark and moved on his own to Gothenburg to go to High School at “Hvitfeldtska
