Cole Porter evening on board

February 12, 2013

As part of our specialist jazz evenings, Nicki our fabulous vocalist, Elvis our wonderful pianist, and myself, got together at the end of January to produce an evening of Cole Porter told in narrative and music.

With a slide show featuring all his Cole Porter’s old theatre bills we told the story of this incredible man’s life, from his early years of his mother’s domination right through to his riding accident that almost cost him his life.

With songs from his shows such as  ‘I get a kick out of you’ , ‘My heart belongs to daddy’ and the forever famous ‘Every time we say Good bye’ , we demonstrated how Cole Porter became a legend.

This is just part of the variety of entertainment that we have on board Aegean Odyssey, including our wonderful lecture programme, our poetry recitals and our Jazz Four Jam Sessions.

    I was lucky to have Nikki as the featured artist on my last cruise. She is an amazing vocalist and such a great person.. lots of fun to have on an excursion, too.
