I'm very sorry to hear of the death of Graeme Bell.

I only saw one concert in the 1950's at the Town Hall concert hall in 
Birmingham, England. One of the things I remember from this concert was when 
the band members all started swapping and playing each other's instruments. 
When a trumpet was handed to Graeme, he put it to his lips, pointed it to 
the sky, and then placed it carefully on the piano.

He would have been 98 years old this year.

Requiescat in Pace
