Is the sentence correct?

Will they keep performing such as singing in a choir, playing the piano, playing in an orchestra or band, and so on?

Thank you

Technically it may be correct, but I hear number and type disagreements between keep performing and singing, playing, and so on . It would sound better to me worded: - Will they keep giving performances, for example [such as] singing in a choir, playing the piano, playing in an orchestra or band, and so on?
