The Weyhill Electronic Organ Society's December concert, understandably containing a Christmas theme, was performed by Matthew Bason, a versatile performer from Kettering in Northamptonshire.

An excellent variety of entertainment was assured as, in addition to his electronic keyboard, Matthew brought along an electric piano and accordion. His excellent tenor voice, together with his cheeky humour, delighted the audience throughout the evening and the concert continued past the normal two hours.

His vocals comprised the sacred carol, O Holy Night, contrasting with What a Wonderful World (Louis Armstrong), If You Go Away (Matt Monro) and White Christmas (Bing Crosby), whilst his instrumental performances included a number of well-known Christmas songs.  The piano was employed to play a medley of music in the style of Winifred Atwell and the accordion was put to appropriate use for a selection of popular Scottish tunes.

The Club’s 2024 concert programme begins on Thursday 18 January and further information can be found on the Club’s website.
