Sir David Willcocks wrote to JB:
"I look forward to getting a blow by blow account of the Bertalot saga, if I am still on the mailing list!"  
He was!

Simon Preston said to JB over a G&T in New York:
"Everyone reads your Newsletters. I want my photo on the FRONT PAGE again!"
 He got two photos on the next front page!

Dr Francis Jackson
kept all JB's Newsletters - neatly filed on his grand piano!

John Bertalot mailed over 1,000 of his annual Newsletters to friends and colleagues all over the world during his 16 exciting years making music with highly gifted musicians in the Ivy League University town of Princeton, New Jersey.

The early technology of copying photographs made the first few Newsletters look somewhat grotty,
but eventually they were published in brilliant color…

… so, ENJOY!
