think about things less and worry about tomorrow tomorrow............I grew up in Melbourne playing the clarinet and listening to the music of the swing era. I studied saxophone at the Victorian College of the Arts, mainly with Tony Hicks and Ian Godfrey. I later studied clarinet with Grania Burke and flute with Vernon Hill. I love vintage horns, learning about accoustics and repairing, listening to all sorts of music , Ebay, good food, coffee, red wine and running. Some of the people I've been fortunate enough to have played with include Orchestra Victoria, the Production Company, the Daryl McKenzie Jazz Orchestra, Bennet's Lane Big Band, the Melbourne Jazz Orchestra, Olivia Newton-John, DownBeat Big Band, Cairo Club Orchestra, various other big bands and Latin bands and many more. My goal is to continue discovering more about myself and the music I love each day and to have fun along the way. The biggest events in 2007 for me will be my first wedding anniversary and the release of the final "Harry Potter" book. Escapism is a wonderful thing. I also hope that it starts to rain again soon and that people around the world will stop trying to kill each other and that the war will end- maybe more people need to read happy books like "Harry Potter."I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
