Grace Li

Parkway Central High School

Grace Li is a 16-year-old violinist and is currently a senior at Parkway Central High School. She has been studying violin for 10 years and is excited for her 4th season with the St. Louis Symphony Youth Orchestra.  

Grace’s past orchestras include the Community Music School of Webster University’s Young People’s Concert Orchestra and Young People’s Symphonic Orchestra, as well as the 2022, 2023, and 2024 Missouri All State Orchestras. Each concert, performance, festival, and new musical experience has been extremely special to her. Grace has studied with Mikhail Lobko and Dana Myers, and currently studies with Xiaoxiao Qiang. She is grateful for their support, along with her family and her orchestra directors including Clay McKinney and Alicia Bont. Outside of violin, Grace enjoys playing lacrosse, traveling, cooking, and hiking.
