If you have not seen our blogger Vern Nelson play the piano, you are in for a treat. Tomorrow you can see Vern in concert at 5 pm, at the Huntington Beach Central Library. He will be playing Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, the Bach/Brahms Chaconne for the Left Hand, his arrangement of Beethoven’s 5th, some beautiful jazz and Debussy pieces, and YOUR REQUESTS!
I hired Vern to play at a Holiday party in December. Suffice to say that he is incredible!
Admission $10 for adults, $5 for kids, the sad, and the indigent. More info 714-235-VERN or click here.
Can you do Mozart Vern?
Yeah actually I don’t do as much Mozart as I do Bach, Beethoven, Chopin & Debussy, but I’ve got about 6 or 7 favorite Mozart pieces I play a lot; let’s see, they’re popular ones – my arrangement of Eine Kleine Nachtmusik; the Turkish Rondo; a couple of pretty slow movements from the piano concertos……
I have enjoyed experiencing Vern’s live piano performances. He is talented and skilled with a generous measure of warmth and charm. I would highly recommend joining in the musical fun!
How about Antonín Dvořák the Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in G minor, Op. 33?….. Huh? or First American symphony?
