<p>Gerry Parker, writing for the Bristol Evening Post on Monday, described how Allan’s “wonderful technical skills and depth of muscial knowledge” were displayed in a “musically versatile” programme that catered to all tastes, including a Haydn rondo and sonatas by Mozart and Beethoven alongside a selection of “delightful musical lollipops.”</p>
<p>The audience were very appreciative, and a thoroughly enjoyable evening was had by all!</p>
<p>The event raised a fantastic 4-figure sum for the appeal – we’ll let you know exactly how much soon, so please check back…<br />
