It was great talking with you Fred. I really enjoy your website. The music and arrangements are great. You have some great guys playing; some I probably played with. Say hi to Eileen for me. She is a great piano player. Best wishes to you for great success.

I just finished listening to your performance of Fiddler on the Roof which I arranged for the Toronto SQ (I play tenor). Enjoyed it a great deal; very tasteful reading, great ensemble and style. Bravo!

After so many trades it was great to listen to what you've done. It makes me think that it would be great if I could sit in with your band and quartet and/or our two quartets could play together.
See my email for more details.
