Guests will be offered a complimentary drink on arrival from 7pm until shortly before the concert and some light sweet treats are planned for afterwards. Bookings are essential due to limited space.   If you have questions, or would like to reserve a seat, please contact Alberton, 100 Mt Albert Road, Auckland – tel (09) 846 7367 – email: alberton@heritage.org.nz – hours: Wednesday-Sunday 10.30am – 4.30pm.  Please refer to the coupon below for further details.

To my overseas contacts, as much as I’d love to see you at the concert I do not expect you to travel the many thousands of kilometres it would take to get here!  Instead I would like to invite you and all of my contacts to be among the first to view my latest music video.  The video entitled “The Little Church in the Field” features a performance of my composition “Finchdean”, which I will play on November 8th.

Best wishes,
Bruce
