Bach's Goldberg Variations.[1]

Early life

[edit]

Nazarian grew up in Plainsboro Township, New Jersey and attended West Windsor-Plainsboro High School North for her freshman and sophomore years, before being home-schooled for the remainder of high school years to avoid conflicts with her professional performing career.[5]
