Creative Keyboard Club July 2015 Meeting

Creative Keyboard Club July 2015 Meeting

The MC for the occasion was Marlene Forrest and the arrival music was played by Michael Bramley on keyboard. This was Dave Hallam's 2nd farewell from the club. He might even be back for a third!

Zyon with 'Short Story' and 'Minuet' then followed younger brother Cuba with 2 pieces both on clavinova
Barbara Powell on keyboard with 'Come Back to Sorrento'
Rob Powell then dueted on clavinova with Barbara 'Man With The Mandolin' (with lyrics) and 'Dream a Little Dream of Me'. Rob then alone with 'The Gypsy
Denise Gunson on clavinova played 'Cry Me a River' and 'When You Wish Upon A Star'
Dave Hallam with 'Do You Know Where You're Going to' (clavinova) and 'Swinging Safari' (tyros 4). The first half ended with a presentation to Dave and Christina and we all sang 'We'll Meet Again' (thanks to Denise Gunson). Thank You to all our performers today.

Our popular guest artiste, pianist Vladimi Shilov then took centre stage on clavinova. Lots of Latin beats, some Jewish tunes, the blues, and a couple of his own compositions (one composed on the way here we believe). They included 'Blue Bossa', 'My Funny Valentine', 'It's Alright By Me', 'You Are So Beautiful' (for Dave Hallam) and the most popular pop tune of all time 'Yesterday'
We Thank You Vladimir and always so look forward to your visits
