21岁的悉尼大学学生Sterling Nasa两个月前在位于悉尼Darling Harbour的ICC Sydney Theatre举办的《La La Land》音乐会上临时替代生病的键盘手登台演出1。当时他在舞台上仅有90秒的时间准备首次演奏celeste乐器1,这一意外表现引起了广泛关注,随后被纽约时报、华盛顿邮报、BBC、卫报和CNN等国际媒体报道1。
作曲家Justin Hurwitz对Nasa的临场表现印象深刻,随即邀请他参加《La La Land》十周年音乐会1。本周末(美国当地时间周六晚间),Nasa将在洛杉矶格里菲斯公园的希腊剧院演出,这次他将演奏难度更高的钢琴主部分1。除了音乐表演外,这位就读国际关系专业的学生还在当地教堂弹琴,并在Scots College教授苏格兰风笛1。
Sterling Nasa, a 21-year-old Sydney University student, will take the stage at the Greek Theatre in Griffith Park this Saturday evening to perform at the La La Land In Concert 10th anniversary celebration.1 The performance marks a remarkable ascent for Nasa, who unexpectedly became an international sensation two months ago when he stepped in as an emergency replacement for an ailing keyboardist at a La La Land concert at ICC Sydney Theatre Darling Harbour.1
During that initial performance, Nasa had merely 90 seconds to prepare before taking the stage to play the celeste instrument for the first time.1 His unexpected appearance caught the attention of La La Land composer Justin Hurwitz, who subsequently invited the student to perform at the Los Angeles concert.1 This weekend's performance will be considerably more demanding, as Nasa will now play the piano lead part rather than the celeste.1 The international media coverage of his Sydney debut was substantial, with outlets including The New York Times, The Washington Post, BBC, The Guardian, and CNN reporting on the story.1
Beyond his musical pursuits, Nasa studies international relations at Sydney University and maintains active musical involvement in his community, playing piano at a local church and teaching Scottish bagpipes at Scots College.1
