Creative Keyboard Club December 2015 Meeting

MC for the occasion was Marlene Forrest and the Christmas arrival music was played on clavinova by Denise Gunson. The Farley's once again made a beautiful job of the cake.
Program ...
Mary Barrett was first up on her Korg keyboard with a short excerpt from the 'Warsaw Concerto', 'Body and Soul', 'This Masquerade' (a medley with a Christmas ending) and 'Zing! Went The Strings of My Heart'
The Creative Quartet of 3 keyboards and piano consisting of Marlene Forrest, Barbara Powell, Barbara McNab and Rob Powell, played 'C'est Magnifique', 'Chicago', It's Now or Never' and 'C'est Si Bon'. This was their debut performance
Denise Gunson on clavinova ended the first half with 'The Way You Look Tonight', 'La Vien Rose', 'Chen Son De More', 'Bye Bye Blackbird' (lounge style) and 'At Twilight Time'
After a sumptous afternoon tea the Hamper's were drawn and we settled back to enjoy the 'Jackson 5'.

Our guests: Chris Larking on clavinova, Ian Jackson on drums, Richard and Michael on Lead Guitars and Tony on Bass Guitar. Lots of Jazz, Rock 'n Roll and Country music, some with vocals and all with a good toe tapping beat ... there was dancing in the isles and singing to add to the party atmosphere. Tunes included 'Autumn Leaves', 'Moondance', 'Last Night', 'Livin' Doll', 'It Doesn't Matter Anymore', 'Ring of Fire', 'Move It', 'Bird Dog', 'I'm Going to Knock on Your Door', 'Just walk On By', 'Me and Bobby McGee'. They sure showed us their professionalism and everyone had a ball! Thank You All for a wonderful afternoon.
