It is difficult to find new words to describe the keyboard playing of Mike Sanchez who, on Saturday night at the Ramada Hotel, rounded off this year's Bewdley Festival in his inimitable style.

Backed by a swinging band and to a packed dance floor Mike, in cooling white not red, drove through number after number, with guests Ricky Cool and trombonist Geoff Goodwin adding their own contributions.

A fantastic night and a fitting climax to another great nine days in Bewdley.
