Once there was Chopin, Mozart then Liberace, now we have the Piano Wizard Andrew Farrell to wow you with the history of the music he will be
performing, telling the stories of songs and composers in interesting and funny ways. Amazingly Andrew uses all 88 keys, fingers gliding with ease & providing a depth & texture with the whole spectrum of musical colour: his brilliant use of vocal completing the performance. Over the years this phenomenally gifted artist has developed stunningly unique piano style, where he often combines classical elements with Jazz, Boogie Woogie and Blues. He then synthesizes these into a very personal and engaging musical composition. Andrew cleverly quotes from other songs and makes them a natural part of his improvisation. These performances are always dramatic, joyous and pyrotechnic.
He will engage you to participate as much as possible in singing along.
