The arrival music was played by Ian Jackson and enjoyed by all as he just  progressed from song to song and appeared to be in a world of his own that he was also enjoying.  

Our first on the program for the afternoon was:
Colin Crann Playing the Clavinova Piano. Colin played “ Wonderful” and “ Acorda Amor”. As always very enjoyable.
Noni Walker came next playing for us for the first time. Noni played “ Unforgettable” and “ The Last Waltz” Those nerves didn’t come across very much at all. Well done Noni, we look forward to more!Shirley Smale played on her Tyros 4 two lovely pieces “Love is Many a Splendid Thing” and “ Born Free”. Well done Shirley.
