Club Night 3rd October 2017

A full house enjoyed a great evening of music with members playing in the first half and then our guest artists in the second half. Arrival music was provided by Arthur Reid on his Korg Pa3x. Peter Longbottom got the ball rolling playing his Korg Pa600 and followed by Warren Levick on the Club's Yamaha Clavinova CVP-509. To finish the first half, Denise Gunson played the Clavinova.

After a refreshing tea break, it was time to be entertained by our guest artists: Ben Fernandez on the Clavinova and Nick Jones on his acoustic and electric violins. What a wonderful concert with such a great variety of songs and genres. Definitely a night to remember!

A big thank you to the Committee and volunteers who made the evening flow so smoothly.

What a great night of music with completely different styles of play making the evening really special. Colin Crann did the arrival music for us on the Clavinova. Jan and Kevin Johnston then played for us with Jan on her Korg Pa1X and Kevin on his Crafter acoustic guitar. After a refreshments break we were entertained by Rob Powell on the Club's Yamaha Clavinova CVP-509. Rob treated us to a great variety of styles/arrangements and a broad range of types of music - very nice, thank you Rob.
