Dressed in formals, a young musician finishes his perfect piano recital, stands up, faces the audience, smiles, and takes a bow. The only difference this time is that they are watching his performance virtually.

While lockdown and partial lockdown rules continue to be deliberated upon, The Stop-Gaps Cultural Academy is presenting the ninth edition of their Budding Brigade concert. The concert, which will be hosted virtually, will include 10-minute performances from 11 participants, including pianists, a male soprano singer, and a cello-pianist duo. The concert will include works by Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, and Chopin among other master composers.
