G'Day all,

It's been a while since I have been on the list. Just
wanted to share a great experience I had recently. Our
band (Royal Australian Air Force Air Command Band) was
recently invited to perform at the Belingen Jazz
Festival. In order to get the whole band involved
(rather then just our Stage band) our boss organised a
concert in Belingen on one of the nights of the
festival. The guest artist was David Helfgot (of
"Shine" fame). We played Rhapsody in Blue with him
along with Blue Shades and other "Jazz" oriented (if
that is the right expression!) pieces. It was a
fantastic experience. David is just the most wonderful
person and amazingly talented! I also enjoyed being
back on Bass Clarinet for this concert. Anyway, just
thought I'd share a great experience!

All the best

Rod Ellem
