Club Night 3rd June 2014

What a great Club Night! A near full house enjoyed some great music. In the first-half, arrival music was provided by Laurie Conder who then played in the main body of the first-half as well. We were also entertained by Warren Levick on Clavinova and Brian and Denise Gunson on guitar and Clavinova. After a leisurely tea break we were entertained by our very special guest artist, Rendall Miller, who gave a wonderful Concert on our Clavinova CVP-509.

A big thank you to our Committee for making the evening go so smoothly.

Coffee Day at Mayfair Village on 19th May 2014

What a great Coffee Day. This was our first visit to Mayfair Village, Northcross, North Shore and our members were given a very warm welcome. What a lovely Village and magnificent lounge that we were privileged to share with the residents for the day. We started at 10 am and carried through until about 3.30 pm and culminating in a mini-Concert given by professional pianist, Denise Gunson. A big thank you to all our members for sharing the fun and providing great music for the residents on Community Music Day.

A big thank you to: Diane Lyons, the Club Events Manager; Dennis Lyons, Club Photographer; Delyse Whorwood, Club Secretary; Sylvia Riddell; and last but not least, Club Treasurer, Laurie Conder. We appreciate and acknowledge also the Music Group at Mayfair Village for facilitating the day and in particular Marion. The kitchen staff did a great job also with a superb lunch at very reasonable prices that our members and residents tucked into! Also, a big thank you to the Music Group of the Village for 'shouting' afternoon tea for our Club members.

The resident must have enjoyed the music as we were invited back next year and that will be our pleasure as we enjoyed the day too!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Northbridge Village Concert 18th May 2014

As part of The North Shore Organ and Keyboard Club's on-going programme and ethos of 'Bringing Music to the Community' we were delighted to be invited to play for the Northbridge Village residents. The NSOKC has a long relationship with Northbridge Village through previous Concerts over the last 30 years and members of our Club being residents of the Village.

The Concert was held in the Village's Hall and started at 2 pm and continued for one and a quarter hours. We were grateful for members of our Club offering their time and musical talent  for the Concert. Players were: Marlene Forrest; Peter Jackson; Len Hancy and Peter Brophy; and Denise Gunson. The programme was co-ordinated by NSOKC's Events Manager Diane Lyons and Club Photographer, Dennis Lyons and much thanks and kudos goes to each and one of these members for putting-on a wonderful Concert that the audience thoroughly enjoyed judging by their smiling faces and tapping feet! A big thank you to the Northbridge Music Group for facilitating the Concert.
