"Born in China and abandoned as a baby, Crelli spent the first eight months of her life in an orphanage before being adopted and brought to Alaska. She grew up first outside Fairbanks and later in Dawson City in Canada's Yukon Territories, in what she describes as a very off-the-grid lifestyle. Crelli's childhood unfolded in one-room log cabins without electricity, running water, internet, or television. Winters were long and unforgiving, and daily life revolved around dog mushing, camping, and husky teams."
"Crelli began playing the violin because her older brother did, and what started as imitation became a family mission. In a cabin nearly 100 miles from the nearest town, lessons continued through ingenuity: their teacher recorded instructions, which Rose and her brother replayed on a battery-powered cassette or CD player while their mother accompanied them on a battery-powered piano. When the family later moved to Dawson City, her mother drove ten hours"
Rose Crelli was born in China, spent eight months in an orphanage, and was adopted and raised in Alaska and Canada's Yukon Territories. The upbringing took place in off-the-grid one-room log cabins without electricity, running water, internet, or television, with long winters and daily life centered on dog mushing and camping. Music entered early when an older brother played violin, and practice continued through ingenuity using recorded lessons and battery-powered instruments. The family made arduous drives for monthly instruction in extreme cold, demonstrating deep commitment. Persistent practice, ingenuity, and family support propelled Crelli to major performance stages.
