An Evening of Christmas Music

I was invited to perform a piece of Christmassy music at a recent gathering of friends and acquaintances at the home of the same lady who hosted a similar evening last September.

So armed with my Yamaha PSR E-443 electronic keyboard and the song  - Handel's "Joy To The World" - firmly locked down in my head I duly presented my arrangement of the classic piece.
(Note that it is ascribed to Handel; there is no clear evidence that he actually composed it.)

Back: Michele & Conner. Front: Bruce & Margaret.

Michele is my teacher, Connor is a young man (last year of high school next year) with an amazing voice and Margaret is a good friend, a fellow music (electronic organ) student of Michele and our wonderful hostess for the evening.

A great time and I thoroughly enjoyed myself and I continue to obtain a huge amount of pleasure and satisfaction from my music and the lessons, which now total 40 since February of this year.

We have a six-week break during the annual summer holidays until the end of January and over that time I will continue to practise and also revise the lessons of the past year.
