Hi Lance
The performance of 'Big Ben' and the jam session were well worth attending. Claude Werner himself, with typical self-deprecation, dismissed the composition as being unlikely ever to be heard again. I think another airing would be a great idea! The jam session produced some highlights; the 'house' band - Ben Gilbert,Mick Shoulder,David Carnegie and Werner were top-drawer. The sitters-in of note,to these ears at least,were the Budvivarians, trombonist Joe (an ex-Budvivarian I believe),Nicola on baritone and for the last number a female vocalist - I didn't catch her name - singing 'Summertime'.I'd love to hear her sing some other tunes.I wonder...could Dave Weisser offer an invitation? Claude's tenor playing was absolutely top-class.

It was wonderful to be part of this event. I was struck by how much love was in the air. Many people there had been inspired by Ben and Claude and really wanted to say thank you in the best way they could - by playing music.
