Creative Keyboard Club March 2015 Meeting

Creative Keyboard Club March 2015 Meeting

Marlene Forrest was the MC for the day and the arrival music was played by Peter Jackson on keyboard. We wished our hard worker Sue Farley a very happy birthday and congratulated Alan & Lynn Powell on their 50th Wedding Anniversary.
Program ...
Alan (on Yamaha keyboard and vocals) and Lynn Powell (vocals) with 'You Are My best Friend', 'Lay Down Beside Me'
Roy Steen on his Korg keyboard with a rousing march medley 'Stars & Stripes' and 'Anchors Aweigh', 'Just One of Those things' and 'The Entertainer'
Peter Jackson with 'Save The Best For Last' (keyboard) and 'Come Outside' (vocals)
It was lovely to have pianist Kuniko Nakatani who was here on holiday on Clavinova with 'The Way We Were', 'Tico Tico' and 'Nocturne'
Dave Hallam then joined Kuniko on Clavinova with 2 classical duets.
Thank you everyone, you all did a fantastic job.

Our guest Artiste for the second half was piano accordionist Tracey Collins. Tracey brought along her Roland Digital Accordion and entertained us with a variety of sounds and styles amongst them 'C'est Si Bon', 'Bluebell Polka', 'Volare', 'La Vien Rose', 'I Love Paris', 'She', 'Autumn leaves' and various Tangos. All very Parisian and a few tales to go along with them. Thank you Tracey, it's been a while since you were here so please don't make it so long next time!
