Dorothy and I have been inviting more and more audience participation in our concerts at retirement centers lately. Sometimes, we've gone overboard but more often than not, in the past at least, there has been too little. The Duelling Piano business does nothing other than audience participation which is too much. We do a mix of show & audience involvement on little bits of songs-- since the old fashioned singalong doesn't go over well these days. In the following song, we invite the audience to sing the "blue blue blue suede shoes" line at the end of the song.
Rick and Dorothy partnered personally and professionally from 1995 to 2025. Their unique duet featured one of them on 88-key piano while the other managed the bass, percussion, lead solo instruments on a portable keyboard ensemble. Vocals and singalongs were often part of the show. Dorothy transitioned to the quantum-spiritual-realm QSR in January 2025 and she lives on electronically here and via quantum synchronicity winks to Rick from the beyond Email: rick_potvin@yahoo.com
