The evening went well with Warren Levick and Patrick McMillan's inputs to a very appreciative audience. The musicians were all enjoyable in their own way. Linus Treefoot was very entertaining, giving us an overview of his younger days as a student in USA before playing "La Bamba" on his guitar with gusto, including all the trills and necessary embellishments, with a great accompaniment on the Clavinova from his friend Heather Dickson. Heather gave us a treat with her lovely soft-jazz voice singing quietly while she played a beautiful piece of music. Patrick McMillan finished the first set entertainment with a lovely selection of melodies. Warren Levick provided some pre-start entry music on the Clavinova.
Our guest artist, Paul McIssac, held the audience captive, as usual, with his wonderful ability to change great songs we all know, like "Singing in the Rain", "Girl from Ipanema", "Let it Be" and "Danny Boy" to something extraordinary. Paul uses a combination of a KorgPa3X arranger keyboard (to drive the rhythm) with a Kurzweil workstation and additional sounds from software on his laptop played real time through his Kurzweil - particularly attack instruments like guitar and piano.
As the author of his Web Site and MC/President of the Club, I was unable to attend Club Night and so I extend thanks to the additional efforts of the Committee to cover the logistics of set-up etc. A special thanks to member, Diane Lyons, for providing me with a synopsis of the evening activities.
