Belford pianist ready for musical marathon to raise cash for Seahouses RNLI
Taking place in the residents’ lounge at Belford’s Bluebell Hotel on Saturday, July 20, the entirely improvised performance will run from 5.30pm until 10.30pm.
Improvising for such a long period requires huge skill and stamina but Shiela is up to the challenge having raised money for several charities with her music. She explained: “As this isn’t a formal concert, we’re expecting people to pop in and out, staying for as little or as long as they feel and donating to the RNLI during their visit.”
