Virtual Christmas Cracker Concert 17th December 2021

 The Club was pleased to promote a Christmas Cracker Concert with pre-recorded videos by members of the Club using the Zoom video conferencing platform. With the Covid situation, the Club is uncomfortable with opening up for normal Club Night get togethers just yet, and so this Christmas Concert was one way to share the joy of music with fellow members and indeed the whole wide World via this Blog and YouTube generally. A big thank you to the artists who prepared the music videos especially for this Concert and a special thank you to Darren Smith of Music Works for hosting the Zoom Concert with his Company's Zoom license.

The North Shore Music and Keyboard Club wishes all its members and indeed the whole music fraternity World-wide a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year. Let's hope 2022 will start to move us back to more normal times so far as our social interactions are concerned. In the meantime enjoy the videos below that were used for our Zoom Christmas Cracker Concert.
