Noah Waddell began playing the piano shortly after his 7th birthday. For the first few years, he looked forward to his weekly lesson, but it was simply an extracurricular activity among his many other interests. In 2011, Noah discovered his God-given gift after winning a competition and started to practice regularly. Noah has performed at concert halls, performing arts centers, and churches. 'Noah's Concert for the Kids' at the Big Arts on Sanibel Island, raised over $30,000 for the new children's hospital. He currently donates some of his time weekly to 'The Arts in Healthcare Program' at Lee Memorial Hospitals. NBC and Wink News featured a story showcasing his talent as a child prodigy who gives back to the local community. He has also appeared on the PBS TV Show 'Curious Kids' and the Christian Television Network. Noah attended the Sergei Babayan International Piano Academy at the Cleveland Institute of Music in 2012 and 2013. He also received a full scholarship to attend the PYPA at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. After winning a concerto competition at 12 years old, Noah made his orchestral debut performing three concerts as a soloist with the Tampa Bay Symphony. Just recently, Noah won his first international piano competition that was held in Fort Collins, Colorado. Noah is homeschooled and enjoys a variety of activities, including tennis, hiking, fishing, and pickleball. He also loves his two Havanese dogs, Bach and Mozart. Noah has built a unique reputation as an explosive and physical young performer not afraid to take risks. He is serious and sensitive with an innate musicality rarely found in an artist of his age. "I am very grateful for my God-given gift of music and my utmost desire is that you will enjoy it too."
