Club Night 5th May 2026

 A great night of music and much enjoyed by all attending. For the arrival music, we played part of a concert given at our Club Rooms on 1st December 2020. Our special guest artist on 1st December 2020 was no less than one of New Zealand's finest pianists, Carl Doy.

In the first set we were entertained by Ian Jackson and then Warren Levick both playing the Club's Clavinova CVP-809. Great music guys. To finish the first set, we were sent on a trip down memory lane, whence Len Hancy sang songs from the 1930's through the 1960's with backing tracks. The theme was British comedians who also had great singing voices. Some artists songs played were from: Flanagan and Allen; Max Bygraves; Ken Dodd; and Morecambe and Wise.

After supper, kindly managed by Margaret Black, we were entertained by Denise Gunson on our Yamaha Clavinova CVP-809 ensemble piano. What a wonderful pianist Denise is and what a great variety of songs played. Denise's arrangements were magnificent with her crisp playing style so enjoyable.
