Thanks Petro for your "Northern Exposure", or should that be expose?

We've been rather reluctant to make the long trip to Queensland for
Woodford, in the tropical summer and with the spartan conditions provided
for performers, but KaOZ and especially your orcheztra is wetting my
appetite.  Is my old "mate" Ka-ri involved?  Please keep me updated on
recordings and website.  We'll put a link to your site on ours. Can you do
the same for us?

Can't help with ensemble arrangements, sorry.
