Students from Greenview School, in Edmonton, performed with Roger Waters (left) of Pink Floyd at Rexall Place, in Edmonton, May 28 and 29, 2012.

In the eyes of Greenview Elementary School’s music teacher Mike Kolesnikov, his students are top-rate. “I call the kids rock stars now,” he said in the wake of the students’ stellar performance of “Another Brick in the Wall (Part II)” by Pink Floyd. The students, under Kolesnikov’s direction, practised the song-and-dance routine three times a week for three weeks to prepare for their performance onstage with Roger Waters, as part of the Roger Waters The Wall Live tour.
