I just bought a ticket to Raue Center for the Arts, Crystal Lake, Illinois, on Nov 6th, hopefully Emily will play some music from her upcoming CD but even if she doesn't it's always a treat to listen to her perform no matter what she plays.

Hi Don,
Emily's performance in Raue Center for Arts in Crystal Lake is approaching very quickly and I am glad that we have somebody who will attend this event. So I wish you Don beautiful treat and I hope you bring us some photo or at least some report.
World reknown pianist Danny Wright and the amazing 9 year old Emily Bear will perform in concert on two matching Blue Grand Pianos from Piano Trends Music on November the 6th at the Raue Center for the Arts in Crystal Lake.
"two matching Blue Pianos". I am thinking why TWO whether they will play something together or what.
I was reading another article on Internet about Carnegie Hall event with Emily. What I don't understand is why Connie Talbot is mentioned in that article.

The article was written on Oct 9th and at that time Connie was suppose to appear there, since then Connie has backed out of the performance as well as Jackie Evancho I'm not quite sure why they have both declined but it would have been wonderful to have had Connie and Emily meet. Also on the bill is Hollie Steel, Hollie was in the top 10 on last years BGT and if I remember right Hollie also plays the piano, maybe Emily could give Hollie a few tips on the piano when they are together.
I would have really liked to have gone to this but I lack the time off from work to attend...but on the up side I'll see Emily this weekend at Crystal Lake.

Don,
I agree with you. How would it be excellent to see all these girls (Emily Bear, Connie Talbot, Hollie Steel and Jackie Evancho) and others too at the same event. I am surprised that nobody didn't organized such event. In my opinion it would be unforgettable experience and treat for not only us - their fans - but for all people watching it. Ach beautiful dream.
Don, you know what I would like to say again but I repeat another my words - beautiful photo. I see infinity joy in Emily's face and unspeakable bliss in your eyes. ;D Now, I would only like to know who suggested to take this photo - you, Emily or her mom. I hope you tell us more about this event.
Hi everyone, I got to the hotel early yesterday, I wanted to watch the Breeders Cup Classic, (horse race) There was a horse called Zenyatia running who was 19-0 she is a 6 year old mare who has never lost a race and was now in her last race before they retired her, she was up against 11 other colts who are all champions in there own right, well I was pulling for the one lady in the race but in the end she came up 5 inches short of a win and came in 2nd, but she is a real champion even if she did end 19-1.
Now on to another little lady who is only slightly older than Zenyatia but is a champion in her own right. The concert started at 7:30 but I arrived at about 6:45 to find parking and retrieve my ticket from will call, this was the first thing I saw.
Yep Emily's name up in lights, now this isn't the first time I had seen this, when she played Mozart at the Coronado Theater in Rockford I got to see it but I never tire of seeing her name up there. The show began on time and both Emily and Danny Wright played the first song together, now your gonna have to forgive me I don't recall the name of the song they played but it amazes me how two pianist can play together with piano's end to end and do it with such beautiful music coming out is beyond me, but it was fantastic.
After the opening song Emily played first starting with some classics that I've heard her play many times before but I never get tired of hearing her play again, then she went on to play her own compositions two song she play exceptionally well were "Joie" and "Northern Lights", I have heard her play "Northern Lights" many times but as she is getting older it seems to me she is getting better at playing it, it is just such a beautiful song. She ended her part of the performance with "Bumble Boogie" now there was no program and the audience had no idea what her last song would be but I knew and she played it great, it is just a fun song to listen to.
Then it was Danny Wrights turn to play, now I knew nothing about this man but I can tell you he is really worth listening to, his music is wonderful and he plays with alot of passion...I enjoyed his part very much.
Latter Emily returned to the stage and both Emily and Danny performed two song together, "Over the Rainbow" and "Silent Night' both performed wonderfully.
After the concert both Danny and Emily stayed and signed autographs. Here's Emily
it is hard to photograph Emily just being herself because she moves around so much but I did get her to stand still for a second.
after the signing both Emily and Danny went back to the piano's for a short photo shoot, thats when I got these.
and the last one of Danny and Emily with the bear Danny had given her.
sorry I post this photo here but it is so beautiful and cute
and finally two videos. Unfortunately, not with Emily but with Danny Wright. However, if you watch them you will see how great pianist he is and with how big passion he is playing.

eulenspiegel2: most things have some delay because of the custom service...and very likely Emily and Abigail did not pay for speed shifting/transport...

Ursula: Unfortunately I can't read the German forum. Sigh. Too bad they haven't said anything. You'd think their lawyers would come out with a statement at the least. And they keep posting on social media like everything is normal.
Sept 7, 2022 23:14:39 GMT -6
Ursula: Also why is that other forum in German. Why not English?
Sept 7, 2022 23:15:55 GMT -6
eulenspiegel2: it is a German forum...about German pop singer... you may be surprised...but the USA is not the center of the world - it is like US people coming to Europe wondering why not signs in English ..

ursus: Ursula, Google Translate works very well if you translate from German into English and you just need to understand the meaning of what was written. It does still require an understanding of German if you want to use it to post in that language.

ursus: IIRC B&B's lawyers have until 9/23 to respond to the lawsuit. It would not make sense for them to make a public statement before that. B&B themselves have undoubtedly been instructed not to say anything either. That makes sense to me.

mastersgttom: For the benefit of all the members and the guests who visit this site be advised that there is a You Tube video out there of Barlow and Bear doing a live stream. The video was posted by Epic Wonderland. Where she got it I have no clue.
Mar 8, 2024 12:53:33 GMT -6
mastersgttom: The video of the live stream cannot be found on any of their social media platforms. At least from any of my feeble attempts. The video is a bit hard to watch because the audio is totally out of sync with the video.
Mar 8, 2024 12:58:25 GMT -6
mastersgttom: What I got out of the video was that it had nothing to do with Moana. They were very mum about their work on that movie. Bling Ring came up in some of the comments. A bit odd that they have a live stream out there, writing music, and not making it public.

mastersgttom: Wow! I just noticed that it has been a little over a year since anyone has posted anything in this Shoutbox. Eluenspiegel was the last one. I messaged him this discovery a week ago but haven't heard back. He used to be the most active member here.
