WHEN the choir kicks off the opening off the Commonwealth Games this week, 7-year-old Leo from North Perth will be among them—virtually.

He’ll be among 2292 youngsters around the world singing in Eric Whitacre’s virtual choir at the Glasgow games opening. Leo recorded his version of Whitacre’s song What If from the musical Paradise Loft and sent it off, where it’ll be played as part of a Unicef film at the games.

The opening is expected to attract about 1.5billion viewers, some of them tuning in to see Susan Boyle or Rod Stewart, but probably mostly to watch Leo.
