Caleb got to participate in the University of Utah's Monster Concert.
The Monster Concert is a huge concert where they put about 14 pianos on the stage all at one time and then students perform on the pianos all at the same time.
This year's theme was Disney songs, and Caleb was going to play a song from the movie Fantasia. A lot of the songs incorporate costumes, so Caleb decided to dress up like Mickey Mouse as the sorcerer in Fantasia.
Caleb was going to be playing in the biggest song. It would have 27 students all playing his song at the same time. As he went to rehearsals, they saw Caleb looked pretty cute all dressed up, and he was a good kid, so they decided to give him some extra parts.
They asked Caleb to be part of the show opening and welcome the audience, as well as conduct the first song!
Here is Caleb with Cinderella and Belle announcing the show to begin:

We thought he did a pretty good job considering he has never conducted before.
Then came Caleb's performance. He shared a piano bench with an older student on the end of the stage. Caleb was the youngest student performing.
