Behind the recognition

From the keyboard
to the podium.

In 2026, Isaac’s music at Melbourne High School extended from the keyboard to the conductor’s platform. Alongside his role as school pianist, he led the school choir.

The Best Choral Conductor recognition belongs to this part of his musical life. The original photographs show him facing the singers, leading with his hands while the choir performs together.

Conducting adds another dimension to his work as a pianist and accompanist: shaping a performance through the musicians around him.
