‘People like a tune they can whistle!’ – Margaret Pereira
David Pereira’s 70 Not Out!, Program 3

David Pereira, Cello
Edward Neeman, Piano

My mother’s apt opinion leads to this conspicuously melodious program.

Cello and piano in sweet harmony, too, sing out many good tunes.

Many are folksy.

The largest work is a somewhat neglected masterpiece of amazing virtuosic pianism and romantic lines from both.

Ear worms abounding!
