The ‘Cats’ composer gave a sweet performance of Prokofiev to his four-legged companion in celebration of International Cat Day.
Andrew Lloyd Webber serenaded his cat with a brief performance of Prokofiev’s Peter and the Wolf on the weekend – and it’s purr-fectly adorable (watch below).
Sitting in front of his gleaming grand piano, the Cats composer gave his own feline, Fez, a special musical treat.
His furry friend sits atop the instrument and gazes down intently at the keys as Lloyd Webber aptly plays ‘The Cat’ from Prokofiev’s symphonic fairy tale. A furry good choice.
The video was shared by the music legend on Saturday (8 August) to celebrate International Cat Day.
