I was asked to play at a condo meeting. No tables or dance floor, it was a meeting. Things that have been said here are so very true. Knowing this I took 20 minutes of the hour to explain what my Kn7000 was about.

I started with a drum beat and then added the each accompaniment part while explaining.
Last thing I did was to start the rhythm and played C chord; and then I walked away. They were smiling but that did not last too long – a look of question came.

I stepped back to my keyboard and explained to them that without me the keyboard would continue to play just what they were hearing and nothing more. I played the intro to New York New York and began to sing. I received a stand ovation. These people now understood what an arranger keyboard is all about – and they loved it.

I have seen this in malls and flea markets; people listened, they smiled, they were amazed, and many bought one to take home. Yes I agree, people do not know what an arranger can do.
