Canadian cellist Sophia Ner started playing cello when she was nine years old in her elementary school’s strings program where she could choose between playing the violin or cello. The sound of the cello has always captivated Sophia, and she was drawn to study it. She has completed her Grade 10 exam with the Royal Conservatory of Music, and Grade 8 music theory. She studies with Janelle Ragno in British Columbia. Outside of cello, Sophia enjoys playing baseball with her local league and badminton. She works hard to balance sports, music, and schoolwork.
