The Artist
Ella Ferguson was born in Pinehurst at Moore Regional Hospital
on September 12, 2012 to Homer and Amanda Ferguson. At age
three she started to take violin lessons from her mother once a
week. She also took piano lessons with her father at the same time
that she took violin lessons with her mother. Then in 2020, Ella
started to take violin lessons from her Aunt Sarah Schrader in
Alabama through Google Meets. She has joined Sarah’s studio in
Alabama virtually for concerts and enjoys playing for services at
Emmanuel Episcopal Church. Ella sings with the Emmanuel
Cherub and Chorister choirs. She also studies piano with
international concert pianist Dr. Kristina Henckel.
Ella is an honor roll student in fourth grade at West Pine
Elementary School and participates in Spanish Club, Beta Club,
and Robotics Club. Ella lives in Pinehurst and her hobbies are
dancing, reading, writing stories, fishing and swimming. Whenever
Ella has spare time she reads a book or two and plays with her
neighbors. Her dream is to have her own fishing show. Ella loves to
go to the beach with her sisters Eva (8) and Norah (3 months), her
brother Ashton (3), and her parents. She is very delighted to have
you here and hopes you enjoy the music!
