Piano playing at Burford
Played piano again at Burford Garden Centre yesterday and although it seemed busy as I walked in it then seemed to go quieter. I had a little break around 1pm this week, to have some food and a cup of hot chocolate, delicious it was too! Carried on playing and had some lovely comments from people as they were leaving. People are saying it’s very relaxing and that it’s the nicest music they’ve heard at Burford. This is from people who are obviously used to hearing other people playing there. As I was leaving the staff made some lovely comments too to the same effect, that it’s the loveliest music they have had for ages, so I can’t imagine what the other players are like that play regularly. I mentioned to Rachel, the restaurant manager, that I also sing and that it’s a shame they don’t allow singers. She was shocked and said they should definitely consider people singing. I guess they don’t usually allow it because they might get all sorts of odd singing going on, but I know the stuff I sing would be well received. She was going to see about me going in on a weekend to sing and play as well! Very exciting. This would be a good platform for me to showcase what I do, in terms of people wanting to book me for weddings etc.
Very happy that these developments are coming thick and fast! Just hope I can keep up with it all!
