Glad you liked it. We did, too. I confess to a small disappointment in that I had really hoped (convinced myself) that Branford Marsalis would play one number with the ensemble after receiving the award. Other than that it was terrific. Oh, and that piece they did in honor of Diane from Je's was a really nice piece. I'd like to get the arrangement for that. I loved Lisa Green's vocals! It was nice that the whole place was sold out, too!
