The festive season is in full swing, and I’m thrilled to give you a little behind-the-scenes glimpse of what I’ve been working on for this year’s Christmas at Home! My latest upload is a cover of Wham’s timeless classic, Last Christmas, played on my beloved Yamaha Tyros 4.
If you’ve been following my musical journey, you’ll know how much I enjoy breathing new life into iconic songs. The Tyros 4 organ is the perfect partner for this track, allowing me to layer lush harmonies, add that signature holiday sparkle, and create a sound that’s both nostalgic and fresh.
Why Last Christmas?
For many, this song is synonymous with the holiday season. Its heartfelt lyrics and catchy melody have made it a festive favorite for decades. I wanted to put my own spin on it, capturing the warmth and emotion that makes it so special while showcasing the incredible versatility of the Tyros 4.
