I found this digging around in around in my files. It’s the 78th Academy Awards Closer – the part of the Oscars that nobody gets to hear. The host was Jon Stewart. Harold Wheeler, conductor & arranger. The featured soloists are Dan Higgins (alto) and Wayne Bergeron (trumpet). The trumpet section for the show was Rick Baptist (1st), Wayne Bergeron, Warren Luening, and Bobby Findley. I recorded it not knowing what to expect – for posterity. What I got was pure awesome!

Israeli film “Footnote”, directed by Joseph Cedar, was among nine

the rights to distribute the film in North and South America.
42-year-old Cedar also won an Oscar nomination for his 2007 film
