Milngavie Music Club piano concert
Alasdair’s last visit two years ago coincided with a freak snow storm in Milngavie that made local roads impassable for a few hours, and the organisers were close to cancelling the event.
Music Club President Hugh Macdonald, said: “About 70 intrepid music lovers somehow managed to get to Cairns Church on foot, and enjoyed a fantastic evening of brilliant piano playing. We promised Alasdair we would bring him back, hopefully to a full house, and that’s what we expect when he plays for us again this month - unless we’re hit by another blizzard!”
