Classical music changed Lerisa’s life. When she feels self-conscious, she finds strength in her music. When she feels lost, she finds purpose in her music. And when she feels voiceless...she finds that voice in being classically unashamed. In an era ruled by the Taylor Swift’s of this world, Lerisa Strydom is unashamed to be classical. This is not your “...red lip, classic, thing that you like,” but rather a ballgown wearing, high notes singing, type of classic. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
