Piano Accompaniment in Robina

I had the privilege of accompanying my son, Lachlan, in his performance in the Year 12 Music Extension class on Monday night, at Robina Community Centre. When I say ‘privilege’ it was with a certain amount of concern that I practiced for two days to get up to scratch for the concert. We didn’t have the money to pay for a professional. And I didn’t really have enough time to put into getting to a professional standard, with a weekend workshop on the agenda just before the concert.

Still… we turned up and performed “Music of the Night” from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Phantom of the Opera“, “Giants in the Sky”, from Stephen Sondheim’s musical, “Into the Woods“, not to mention a 30-second piece of vocalese. Lachlan did well.
