I'm an ex-Pro musician but also now semi-retired (I'm 62) from my Event Management career. I love playing for Pantomimes, Musicals etc. I have a magnificent keyboard which can provide music of any type, with lots of incredible sound effects. I can be a complete 'Pit Band' on my own (it has a very 'Big' sound, and by that I don't mean loud!) and I have a very wide range.

I've played for 2 Pantomimes now in Northants and adored doing both (and I think they were quite pleased with what I did, too; references available) but would like to find some more (preferably closer to home, Banbury, but not essential). I can email a Demo Overture in MP3 but it's about 3 Mb ((I suppose I could do an extract at about 1 Mb if you're interested).

No charge or just travelling expenses.

Hi.

I've used Freddie's service & have to say that what he offers is invaluable if you just cannot find the music you want.

He literally took a poor video recording of a broadway musical & recreated an entire number for me. Although we worked via email most of the time, a visit to his studio ensured that we got the right style & added all the quirks unique to our own show. All this & for no charge - what a lovely man!

Thanks Freddie!

Just to let anybody know who may be interested that I now have a new keyboard which can record, store and play .WAV files so in addition to the huge musical range it has already, I can record or download many SFX.

For example for a local Panto I've just made a SFX of the voice of the Magic Harp alerting the giant to its being stolen in a voice like Sparky speaking in Harp strings!

An Update. I've now put up a seperate website where you can downlkoad Demo tracks including a couple of Panto Overtures.
