STEPHEN MARTIN DOUBLE BASS PLAYER EXTRAORDINAIRE,
Sadly we have learnt of the passing of Steve Martin. He will be sorely
missed, especially by those who enjoyed concerts by Virtuosi Tasmania
which he founded in 1992, after many years playing bass in the Tasmanian
Symphony Orchestra.
We especially remember the performance at Milton by
Virtuosi Tas. of Jazz: "Spirit of the MJQ" only last
year, when Steve introduced all the items with his
customary elan and dazzled us with his wonderful bass
playing.
Steve had been bravely battling health issues for some
time, not that you would have guessed from his usual
cheerful self. It is hard to believe we will not have the
privilege of hearing him play live again. Thankfully
there are some wonderful recordings. RIP Steve
Martin. Jennifer Lathwell for ECCAI.
Thanks from the Lord Family

flowers, we sincerely say thank you.
Our thanks also to the Anglican Church Guild and the Uniting
Church ladies for the refreshments served at the Bowls Club, and to
Dean and Barry for looking after the bar.

Swansea Holiday Park has been undergoing a complete revamp
to its cabins in readiness for the upcoming season.
New managers, Desmond and Berice, have returned from their
wintery snow bound stint running the Bronte Park Chalets to
take on the management of the park, happily for them in much
warmer conditions.
With the help of assistant managers, Greg and Sheree, Swansea
Holiday Park will be open for business on Sat. 19th September.
Many thanks to Deirdre, Lyn and Charmaine for their hard work and contribution to getting the
cabins prepared for what we hope will be a bumper tourist season for Swansea and the East Coast.

Musica Dolce at Milton
ECCAI’s first Spring concert at Milton on Sunday 6 September
did not bring the promised thaw but it did warm the hearts of
the full house in attendance. Musica Dolce performed a range
of Baroque wind music on instruments modelled on those of
the period. Several of these were made by group member Don
Cartwright, who is a luthier of many years experience as well as an accomplished
oboist. The range of works selected was - as always it seems with ECCAI concerts both entertaining and informative. Well-known composers such as Telemann and
Bach were set alongside others, such as Benda and Quantz,
whose work is relatively unknown to the lay person.
The wintry landscape of the vineyards in the background
was in contrast to the warmth and vitality of the music, the
beauty of the setting and the skill and enthusiasm of the
ensemble, which was formed in 1999. A very pleasant
afternoon, courtesy of ECCAI and Milton. Brett Martin
