It was a great experience to be part of such a big group and I’m looking forward to meeting up again for more of the same!

 I took some of my students over to Bath last month to perform in the Blowout Sax student concert and they all did brilliantly.

And looking forward to the next rehearsal in about 6 weeks time once he’s on the mend.

It was great to be playing back at the Prom; reminded me of the days of the jazz jam there.
