Dawn Zulueta had her first piano recital, and she did well! Before celebrating her 50th birthday next year, she fulfilled her long-time dream of playing Ludwig van Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" in front of a crowd.
Her Instagram post read, "Here it is, the video of my first public performance playing the piano...
"As a gift to myself before turning 50 next March, I pursued my longtime dream of learning Beethoven's 'Moonlight Sonata.' I began last year, playing only by ear as I don't know how to read musical notes & never had formal lessons before...This is far from perfect. Nonetheless, I am happy to have had the privilege of playing for a cozy crowd. Thanks to my teacher, Malou Parma, for encouraging me & believing in me."

She has also found time to pursue other passions such as needlepoint, which was defined by Cambridge Dictionary as "the activity of making a picture by sewing onto a piece of cloth." This was her Chintz-patterned tapestry project.
