David Vernon @Stockport AC, Cheshire – UKby Rob Howard |
David Vernon, from Edinburgh, made his debut at Stockport Accordion Club on April 21st, turning in a most impressive performance of international music. His pieces were interspersed with funny stories and jokes, and David’s humour was also cleverly interwoven into his music, resulting in a most entertaining evening. David’s programme included ‘Romagna Bella’, ‘Scottish/Irish Jigs/Reels’, Firefly Waltz’, ‘El Capitain’, ‘Roulette Wheel’, ‘The Godfather Selection’, ‘Terminal 3’, ‘Jacqueline Waltz’, ‘Cuckoo Waltz’, ‘Jewish Set’, ‘Excelsior’, The Dark Island’, ‘Americana’, ‘The Flying Scotsman’, and as an encore, ‘The Mason’s Apron, Boys of Bluehill, Harvest Home’. His encore set was especially remarkable for the way in which he frequently switched the melody from treble to bass sides, back and forth, and with bewildering speed. Also contributing to the concert were the Stockport AC Band (MD Derek Stubbs), Betty Molloy/Chris Green, John Higham, Rob Howard, Ray Peacock, and Brennan Wilson.
