I attended the Prince Albert Music Festival Piano Awards Concert at 7:30 pm at Calvary United Church. I arrived early enough to ensure a front row seat in the balconey. I worked on my Sudoku Puzzles until the concert began. It was a very entertaining concert. The skill level of the young pianists is very high in Prince Albert. I enjoy listening to the kids interpret the music and see if I can sense from their music, an interpretation that corresponds with the title of the piece. Usually no problem - fire - fly- waterfall, for example. I enjoyed the duets on one piano or the duo piano performances. The highlights are the performance by the senior students, and especially the concertos where the student plays one piano and their teacher or someone else plays the orchestra part on the second piano. Hence the 2 pianos in the graphics tonight. I left after the concert therefore not staying for the awards presentation. On the way out I handed out more personal posters of the Men of the Way Concert and bumped into my daughter Twyla. We discussed using playback equipment at the Cathedral for her accompaniment at the Men of the Way Concert. I told it was DVD player, so thought it would work best if she could burn her accompaniment music on separate CDs. She will try that and work out a time when we can test things out at the Cathedral.
