The musically talented Brooklyn born popstar Julian Velard is turning teacher for a day, as he offers fans the unique opportunity to win an hour long one-to–one piano tutorial with him. You’ll be in very safe hands with Julian, as he was trained at La Guardia High School (the performing arts school that cult movie FAME was based on) although we can’t promise he’ll be wearing leg warmers and a leotard!
So if you’re handy with a piano (playing it, rather than moving it) and fancy the opportunity to improve your skills and impress your mates with a world class rendition of chopsticks, why not check out the competition page at http://www.bebo.com/Profile<wbr>.jsp?MemberId=4625513578
Here’s how to enter:
Grab a video camera / camera phone / anything you fancy
Video yourself playing something on the piano (a keyboard or similar will do)
Upload it onto Julian’s Bebo page (above) by clicking the cunningly-titled ‘Upload A Video’ button in t
