        My favourite was when as a a teen, we went to see the Canadian Brass for the first time - their Christmas Concert at Roy Thompson Hall. Afterward, I even got to meet trumpeters Fred Mills and Ronald Romm. Even got their autographs!can brass.jpg

          @gordon Performing Sounds of Christmas VI at Compass Point Bible Church on Friday, December 12, 2008 (DOM Don Allan, and AC, Lynda Eady).

            I always have fond memories of every Christmas concert; mostly because my grandparents would come to literally every one of them (from high school all the way to now). They have always had a huge influence on my musical life--particularly my grandpa.

            I will always hold last year's (2019 BCB) Christmas concert fondly next to my heart as the music we played was so much fun, but I went into it knowing it was going to be his final concert.

            In his final month (at hospice), he kept asking for me to play him the videos I had recorded of the BCB
