<strong>Crawford</strong> College Pretoria student,<br />

Leo Huan, recently competed<br />

in the 2018 Atterbury National<br />

Piano Competition held at the<br />

Atterbury Theatre. Leo was one<br />

of 41 contestants who were<br />

selected nationwide to take part<br />

in this competition. During the<br />

semi-final round, while Leo was<br />

performing, the lights in the<br />

theatre suddenly went off due<br />

to unexpected load shedding.<br />

Leo did not falter. He continued<br />

to complete his performance, in<br />

complete darkness, smoothly and<br />

fluently with exceptional skill. Leo<br />

was awarded 1st Place in the 15<br />

winner of the Best Classical Work<br />

Performance, and went on to<br />

receive 3rd Place overall!<br />
