Noelle Potenzini

Noelle Potenzini is an accomplished music student and performer who approaches the stage with both humility and ambition. She is currently in her last semester of pursuing her Bachelor’s degree in Music Performance at the University of Florida under the guidance of her flute professor, Dr. Kristen Stoner. Upon graduation, she looks forward to attending graduate school and soon beginning her professional career as an orchestral and collaborative flutist. Her undergraduate experience provides her with leadership opportunities that emphasize the importance of establishing good rapport and communication with colleagues, as well as showing up over-prepared. In her experience, music has always been at least one of these three things: an outlet of emotional expression, something meaningful that she can try to perfect, and a form of ineffable storytelling. Noelle is beyond honored and grateful to be selected as a finalist in the 2025 Ocala Symphony Young Artist Concerto Competition. This opportunity serves as a profound reminder of the immense gratitude she holds for the unwavering support of the mentors, family, and friends in her life
