From the Headmaster
"In contrast, last weekend Stefan Leadbeater (1L) starred as the treble soloist in a live performance of the soundtrack to ‘Lord of the Rings: Return of the King’ in front of a sold out audience of 5000 people at the Krakow International Film Festival in Poland. The critically acclaimed composer of the music for all three Lord of the Rings films, Howard Shore, was in attendance, and was very pleased with Stefan’s solo role. The film was projected onto a giant screen, and the soundtrack was synchronised and performed live by a huge symphony orchestra and massed choir. Stefan was given a fantastic ovation by the audience as he was beckoned to the podium by both the conductor and the composer at the end of the film."

So great to see Stefan getting to perform all over the place! However, I didn't hear him in the "live in Krakow" video. I am not sure, but I think his solo bit was at a different part of the film. Pretty sure it's him around 0:30 in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyeSmJ3tAuc&feature=related
But don't quote me on that! :D
I enjoy your blog, thank you!!
