In an invitation letter to music fans, Miss Lian wrote: "I would like to dedicate this concert to all my teachers, family and love ones, my friends, and everyone who will join us on Saturday. With a grateful heart, a girl who loves to sing went on a search for her dream in the United States. Being so far away from my home, I experience the joy and the sadness in life. But singing has brought me happiness and many friends in the foreign country. It is these friends who give me encouragement and support that help me improve. It’s my honor if you will join us on Saturday and I hope my voice will bring you happiness." |
