Violinist Timothy Lee, 17, chats with Raúl Gómez-Rojas about his musical journey and how he is giving back to the community through not one, but two non-profits. As one of this year’s six winners of Cognizart’s Young Artist Debut competition, Timothy is grateful for the opportunities he has had so far. That is why he started Gratis Music (gratismusic.org), which donates violins to children in underprivileged communities. Timothy also teaches with Project Prelude, a non-profit sponsored by Metropolitan Youth Symphony which provides violin lessons to elementary school kids in Beaverton/Aloha.
