蕭凱恩 Siu Hoi Yan, Michelle

我出生三個月時因患眼癌而切除眼球，失去視力，但卻沒有阻礙學習，並在音樂中找到夢想。我在多個音樂比賽中屢獲佳績，曾獲60多項音樂比賽獎項，包括校際音樂及朗誦節的中文、英文及普通話朗誦、中文及外文獨唱和鋼琴獨奏冠軍等。在2017年的第六十九屆香港學校音樂節中，我就獲得公開組中文及外文獨唱比賽的兩項冠軍及Operatic Solo 組別亞軍佳績及殊榮。在2013年，於香港展能藝術會舉辦的「藝無疆：新晉展能藝術家大匯演」獲得「最傑出藝術表現獎」。其後，我在「中國達人秀—香港精英爭霸戰」中擊敗一眾對手，奪得冠軍，代表香港前往上海參賽。2014年七月，獲邀在多倫多舉行的國際獅子會展覽中擔任表演嘉賓，獲得觀眾一致讚賞。我努力不懈，不斷學習，現已考獲英國倫敦聖三一學院LTCL聲樂演奏級及ATCL鋼琴演奏級並獲取優良成績。

除經常獲邀出席不同的公開演出，我更熱心參與慈善活動，如2011年太古地產的「Team愛心慈善義賣」和「二零一零樂施音樂馬拉松」演出等。同年，我更獲社會福利署頒發義工嘉許狀金獎。與視障人士有關的活動，我更是義不容辭支持。2013年，於渣打銀行「看得見的希望慈善籌款」中演出，幫助慈善籌款工作。我的服務心志和行動為香港社會帶來裨益，我縱使身體殘障(視障)、長期身處逆境，仍憑著持續的努力學習、鍛鍊與堅持。我必會更積極投入社會服務及慈善義務工作，以生命影響生命。

I am a blind girl. Due to Eye Cancer Disease, my eyeballs were taken away when I was three-month old. However, I am born gifted in music and singing. My goal is to run a music school for people with disabilities. I have a strong track record in singing competitions, having won more than 60 awards. Consequently, I have been invited to perform at a number of significant local and international events; notably the Arts for the Disabled Association Hong Kong, the Lee Hysan Mini-concert held earlier this year and the Lions Clubs International Foundation in Toronto, Canada. I have obtained the Distinction in Diploma of LTCL Singing Recital and ATCL Piano Recital at Trinity College London.

I am good at composing as well. I wrote a song about my personal story, and about the encouragement and support of her parents, called Oh Daddy, Oh Mummy. I see myself as a unique musician who can sing and compose songs beyond the ordinary. Blindness is a blessing to me as it empowers me to sing and compose better than others. Nothing can stop me from achieving further in music and I am determined to make my voice heard in the world.
