A Grand(e) Concert!

Hello everyone!
I'm a bit late this month, but here's the prompt for this past fortnight's challenge at the SF Collectors forum: 

Challenge #7: Radio and Television

Sylvanians of all ages love to gather around the television and/or radio to catch up with their favorite programs and music! Watching or listening together is a fun way to spend time with friends and family. Many Sylvanians like to watch factual programs to learn more about interesting topics. It’s also an exciting way for performers to share their talents and creativity.

For this challenge, show us how television or radio plays a role in the culture of your village! Let your imagination go wild: create a stage setting, write a radio play, or have your Sylvanians perform in dramatic roles!

If you prefer not to include this sort of technology in the lives of your figures, feel free to focus on another type of show(such as a play, concert, or dance performance).

Make an item or items, photograph a scene, write a story or do whatever inspires you to create a project around the Radio and Television theme!  
    
And here's my entry!

It’s quite lively today at mayor McFarlane’s home in the village of Arcfield. It seems like the whole town is here! Mrs McFarlane has prepared a lot of food, and it’s quite the party. But why are there so many Sylvanians around the TV set?
That’s because this is quite the momentous occasion! This year’s Spring Festival has been covered in TV! This is a first for the village, and as mayor Nicholas’ home is the only one that has a TV set for the moment (though I hear Charles Hunter-Smyth is thinking of buying one…), everyone’s here to watch the program!
Soon enough, the voices of two reporters can be heard on the screen, and everyone’s squeals as the village’s name is mentioned by one of them.
“And now” says a young male squirrel with a bright smile “we’re bringing you our coverage of the main event of this year’s Spring Festival in the little village of Arcfield, located at the north of our biggest continent and close to the sea”.
“Oh!” exclaims the other reporter, a male tuxedo cat, also smiling. “I know their mayor, Nicholas McFarlane. And what may be the occasion?”

“Well, my friend, you will be surprised to hear that as the final event for their festival, they managed to get renowned pianist Lionel Grande to give a concert! This was apparently a surprise even for most of the village’s inhabitants, who cheered and clapped quite loudly when the mayor and his wife came out to announce it that evening!”
“Oh, that is quite impressive, indeed! Seems like mayor Nick has a few contacts in the city, hmm? And he and his wife are quite well dressed, too!”.

“It sure seems like it! And yes, I hear that even though mayor McFarlane is quite down to earth, his wife managed to convince him to dress up for the occasion. Apparently, their clothes were made by a local seamstress, no less!"
“They sure have nothing to envy to the clothes we can buy here in the city!”

“You're absolutely right. Back to our report, it seems like before the actual concert, Mr Grande agreed to have his photograph taken with the villagers”.
“Well, colour me surprised once again! I hear that Lionel Grande is quite shy and tends to avoid speaking to people. He usually appears, plays and disappears as soon as he can!”.
“Well, mayor Nicholas must have convinced him somehow! As you can see, he had a young boy from the village and his own daughter to help with the pictures”.
"That's what I love about these small villages. Everyone's always so helpful and friendly!".

“When night came, the actual concert took place. Lionel’s music was wonderful of course, but no surprise there! All the townsfolk quite enjoyed it”.
“Indeed! I wish I had been there!”.

“And after the actual concert, the final surprise for this wonderful event: a young girl from the village, Fiorella Andes, sang a song to Mr Grande’s music”.
“Oh my, but what an angelic voice!”.
“You’re absolutely right. I reckon this girl has a future in the music world if she chooses to follow that path!”
“And I agree with you! And with that, we have come to the end of our coverage. Have a great night, everyone!”.
“Good night to all of our viewers. Hope you enjoyed this night’s show!”.

As you can imagine, Ariadna, Fiorella’s mother, was bursting with pride! And Fiorella herself was feeling quite important (as if she needed that boost to her ego, hehe!). Everyone in Arcfield feels very honoured that Mr Lionel Grande paid them a visit and played the piano for them. :)
Hope you enjoyed this little story!
