performance - coming out of hiding

It's been nearly a year since I posted on here...and not long after I wrote on my other blog to "not expect any updates on JAG Music for a while as my musical creative drive has been flatlining", I have been asked to play the piano at two weddings. One of them would be for one of my best friends, Ben, who I have known since my student days at Leeds University. The other would be for my sister. I can hardly say no to either of them! Here's a taster of the set I have drawn up for my sister's wedding:
