Dear Mr.

reader

Through this document, I present my interest in having an exchange with Professor

Leslie Perna's guidance through the University of Missouri.

I've been a viola technician at the Federal University of Pará since 2022 and I'm a
bachelor's student at the Carlos Gomes conservatory. Since the beginning of the course I
noticed that I could develop a great work within the area because of my notorious
willpower and dedication. Also, during my professional journey over the last few years,
I came as a boss of the UFPA symphonic orchestra, member/co-founder of the trio
Altino Pimenta, member of the Orquestra Paraense de cinema and member/member of
the orchestra's Council DoMus led by Prof. doctor Fernando Lacerda.

I have a consistent history of successes, which can be proven by my numerous letters of

recommendation. I am certain that this experience would have a great impact on my
academic and personal life. Doing this exchange has been my dream and goal since
2019 when I met the quartet Esterhazy, it would be a great opportunity to put my talents
and abilities into practice and develop them together with a teacher who has a great
name Having said all this, I ask for more information about the exchange program at
University of Missouri, such as: costs, duration, etc...

Yours sincerely,

Gustavo Paiva Trajano
