Prajakta Baral and Gandharv Banthiya together played the piano and brought tunes to life at the Seawoods Euphony Centre during a concert called Maya &mdash; the Illusion on Sunday.&nbsp;

The concert saw children aged from 5 to 20 playing various musical instruments &mdash; ranging from keyboards to guitars &mdash; portraying the relationship between parent and child. Through various songs, they beautifully showcased the various different important stages of a child&rsquo;s life and the crucial role that parents play through the stages. Bela Peshattiwar, founder of the Euphony Centre of Performing Arts, said, &ldquo;I started this music school in 2009 and we had our first concert in 2012. I want children to perform different pieces and put forth a show that has never been seen before. Even though the show ran long &mdash; from 11 am to 2 pm &mdash; the audience enjoyed it so much that every performer was given an applause and it was very motivating.&rdquo;
