Erol Ozsever
Since Spring Break was touching the middle weekends of March, we had no 2nd Saturday or 3rd Thursday but happily continued our Blue Room Acoustic Music Series on the 4th Saturday, March 23rd, with a breathtaking performance from Master Guitarist Erol Ozsever, who played piano arrangements by Eric Satie as well as another famous 'Impressionist' and Chevalier, Claude Debussey, on his classical guitar.
It was stellar!! He then treated us to a few vocal beauties on ukelele and acoustic guitar, earning an enthusiastic encore from a captivated chamberful of grateful patrons. He closed with the heartbreakingly exquisite classic, Spanish Romance, whose author remains anonymous, making the very familiar melody all the more poetic and intimate. You might hear this tune in a moving picture, or in the background at an establishment, or even on the radio or at home by choice. Let me say that the experience is nothing at all like hearing it live. Thank you Erol, for training our hearts on the moments that are not far from grace.
