Russell Lomas my piano accompanist and friend, who I met last year at the Warrington Music Festival, helped me out on the day and travelled by train and tram to play for me, even though a lifelong Manchester United fan. He wore his Manchester United socks which I wish I’d photographed now!

Looking good Charlotte – – – as ever!
Thank you for such a lovely compliment, i always see performances as an excuse to crack out some glitter and a bit of Manchester city blue never does any harm.
Hello, Charlotte! I had piano lessons with Russell Lomas many, many years ago in Macciesfield. I have been teaching the piano myself for over 40 years, so that was a long time ago. It would be nice to have a way to thank him for his part in setting me on my way to a life in music. Perhaps you could pass these words on to him, or let me know where to find him? Hopefully, Rob
Of course I’ll pass your message on Rob 😊.
Best wishes
Charlotte
Thank you, Charlotte. Rob
