KEITH NICHOLS' JAZZDAY WORKSHOP Keith Nichols is one of the country's foremost authorities on Classic Jazz and Ragtime. He is also a witty and inspiring teacher. On a chilly Sunday afternoon Keith held a couple of masterclasses in the Town Hall for local musicians of very varying abilities. He had a delightful knack of coaxing even the shiest beginners into trying to get beyond the note playing and have a go at expressing mood and emotion. Quite a few members of the School Jazz band attended - seeming to pick up useful tips. The fun atmosphere attracted quite a crowd of interested observers who soon got quite involved in it all. The mayor was there and even the Rotary Club marshals came in from the cold for a while!
