The power of music in the hands of young performersrs
by J2B on 2024-03-19Meridian Arts Centre: Lyric Theatre - TorontoRating: 4 out of 5The performers were very well prepared/coordinated and super-excited to sing and dance their hearts out in front of a very large crowd - probably their largest ever. It was very entertaining (especially We Will Rock You) and the Halifax Stagecoach out-of-province guests with a funny "fishy"act!. Congratulations to all, including the organizers and instructors. We look forward to replaying the video recordings.
On the technical side, the audio was sometimes suboptimal; trouble hearing lyrics especially from shorter younger performers (i.e., stage mic's too high). There were some "pitchy"moments but this is totally understandable for the level of musical training and ear development in younger groups.
Overall, these were excellent performances that touched the hearts of many friends, parents and grandparents in the audience.
