Gidday Jazz,
Thankyou for the address on Robert Kolloen. Judy (Robbs) wife was an exchange student in Australia during 1984 and we became good friends. My husband and I then visited them in 1988 for Thanksgiving and Christmas, we went to Detroit and shopped and had a great meal in a Greek restaurant, we then drove to Canada and had they best pizza in the world at 'Mothers'. Just wanted to say thanks and let you know that I am a normal mum who just wants to find her friends (there are a few odd people on this site!). Thanks again Vicki.

Yes and I applogize for those odd people that you dealt with here at mylot. I think that most of us are normal. I am so glad that I was able to help you find your friends. Good friends are so hard to find! It is important that we keep in touch with them! Enjoy your weekend. I am so sorry that I did not get back to you sooner. Posts get lost in the shuffle sometimes. Oh and I am a normal mum too!! Well as far as mums go :)

Good Luck..!!!
A number of composers combined elements of the jazz idiom with classical compositional styles. Notable examples include:
* George Gershwin, Rhapsody in Blue
* Claude Debussy, Golliwog's Cakewalk (from Children's Corner, 1908)
* Igor Stravinsky's Ragtime for 11 instruments (1918)
* Paul Hindemith, 1922 Suite für Klavier
* Kurt Weill, Threepenny Opera (1928)
* Maurice Ravel, Piano Concerto in G (1929–1931)
* Ernst Krenek, Jonny spielt auf (1926)
* Bruce Arnold, A Few Dozen (1955)
* Elie Siegmeister, Clarinet Concerto (1956)
* Darius Milhaud, La Création du monde (1923)[1]
