MAESTRO LOOMIS SHARES HIS THOUGHTS, LOVE OF MUSIC with the communities of dance&more served by The Continental Dance Club with YOU…
I’m constantly searching for titles of songs that I can arrange for ballroom dancing. This one, which I’ve never seen on any ballroom list, I feel, makes an excellent Cha-Cha!
I’ll be playing a public dancing set at the
CONTINENTAL DANCE CLUB’S YEAR 6, UNESCO’S INTERNATIONAL DANCE DAY SHOWCASE, MONDAY, APRIL 29TH, 8 – MIDNIGHT….plus maybe participating in a surprise event or two…😊😉
And a month later, on SUNDAY, MAY 29TH, 2 – 4 there’ll be a final event FINISSAGE TEA DANCE, to wind up a month’s fantastic occasion, also at THE CONTINENTAL DANCE CLUB, THE SCOTIABANK CONTACT 2019 “BACK TO THE ROOTS” PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBIT.
The song I’m playing here has a special significance for me. In 1967, Frankie Valii and his Four Seasons had this big hit, just as I was about to meet the love of my life, my wife Susan. A few years later she accompanied me as a chaperone, while an associate and I toured Scotland for 3 weeks, with a high school band. THIS SONG was always a favourite when my stage band and I performed it…😄 As ever, when I perform here at home, or at The Club, I’m playing along with two tracks that I’ve previously recorded on the Kawai Es8 keyboard.
The two ballet dancers you see on the right of your screen are also important to me. Over the years, they’ve often provided inspiration, and since we’ve just celebrated The International Woman’s Day, I felt it appropriate to place them on the keyboard. In a ballet pas de deux, it is the man’s role to make his lady look as magnificent as possible, as a homage to her.💖
My male danceur here is likely thinking the same thing as I did when love roared into my life, back around 1967….the title of this song…
CAN’T TAKE MY EYES OFF OF YOU!!!
EVERYBODY CHA-CHA! 😊😉💖💃🕺🎹🎶🎵
