Performances
Enjoy these samples from a few of Patty Shortreed’s Calgary area performances.
Unlike performing for the actual exam, the recital was relaxed; Patty had a lot of fun bantering with the audience between song selections. Watch the video to discover more about the exam, the challenges of the pieces to be performed for the exam, and how to prepare for a Royal Conservatory exam. Accompanist Ron Bennie.
