For IB Music SL, the candidate must also upload group or solo performances for the Internal Assessment. This year we were going to include our annual Showcase event, but COVID-19 prevented schools around the world, including our own, from putting on any sort of large gathering and, thus, schools were shut down. In light of this crisis, my senior Showcase was cancelled and replaced with a digital version of it to include in my IA.
Even though all our hard work on the dances and cool ideas was taken from us, I'm still so happy we were able to put on the performance from individual submissions of us singing from homes; our recordings were put together and turned into a YouTube video.
I loved this Showcase's song selection as it included both Broadway Blast! and Rent medleys. Broadway Blast! features "Lullaby of Broadway," "Forty-Second Street," "They're Playing My Song," If My Friends Could See Me Now," and "Everything's Coming Up Roses." Rent features "La Vie Boheme," "Will I?," and "Seasons of Love." I even got to sing a solo in Broadway Blast!.
