<p>Hi Jean Marc,</p>
<p>When you brought up the connection of age and playing
difficulties I thought of Jean-Pierre Morel. I've noticed in the
recent Les Rois Du Fox Trot videos that he hasn't been playing.
Because it's difficult to keep up with events on the continent
from this side of the pond, I thought you might have some current
insight. I'm a particular fan of early 3 reed, 3 brass dance band
music. The Kings of Fox Trot are among the very best!</p>

<p>Hi Jean Marc,</p>
<p> We saw the Chris Barber band three days ago. They do an
annual gig in a village hall on the Oxfordshire, Berkshire
border. It's a privilege to hear a group of astoundingly
good musicians in such an intimate session. I think the
mare, mère confusion might have started as a joke;
Politically incorrect men used "mare" to describe women
sometimes. <br>
