Report by: June Clark

Performer: Brett Wales
Instruments :
Wersi Scala

It was good to have Brett back with us again and his repertoire included:

“Ghost Riders In The Sky”

“How Can You Mend A Broken Heart?”

“After You’ve Gone”

Abba’s “Super Trouper”

Nancy Sinatra’s “These Boots Are Made for Walking”

“The Waltz of Bavaria” – Brett’s own composition

“The Last Waltz”

“Paper Roses”

“Some Broken Hearts Never Mend”

Saunter Medley: “Red Roses For A Blue Lady” and “Claire”.

Music from the Movie “Deliverance” – entitled “Dueling Banjos”

“Tea For Two”

Rumba rhythms for “Arrivederci Roma”; “The Breeze & I” and “Friends For Life”

Latin Samba – “Amor, Amor, Amor”

Queen: “It’s A Kind of Magic”

Full rendition of “Blue Danube”

“I Can’t Help Falling In Love With You”

“My Way”

Rock & Roll Medley

Plus a lively encore to finish his Show!

Brett prepares track recordings in his studio at home in Nottingham. To perform orchestral music, for example, “The Blue Danube”, it is impossible to play it in the style of a full symphony orchestra – it’s just impossible to play all the instruments required at one time. A Symphony Orchestra can consist of up to 20 sections. It just goes to prove the amount of musical theory, creation and patience needed to create a masterpiece. The sounds from the Wersi Scala are amazing – the use of “real voices” in, for example, country and western film music, are a joy to listen to and it certainly made some of us feel like dancing! Thank you, Brett, for a brilliant Show.
