Could be a few reasons. First of all Michael is notorious for rehearsing everything to death! I think he must rehearse brushing his teeth! Since he was on stage every day in Wizard of Oz this didn't allow him to rehearse with the rest of the Phantom cast.
Secondly, he could only attend the Sun. performance for the same reason. But mostly I think it was because he was EXTREMELY emotional that night and having to literally sprint from the performance at the Palladium to do the show at RAH, I'm sure he felt like he wouldn't be "up" to giving his best for the audience. And it's tough to get him to do anything if he feels he can't give 100% or more!
He and Sir Lloyd Webber had agreed ahead of time that he would appear at the last "finale" but not perform. If you notice on the video Sierra Bogess "escorts" him off stage before the other Phantoms begin singing. That was obviously pre-arranged.
