Greetings to you and Naomi
Were your ears ringing?
I was just looking through some CD's and came across "This Is Tony Horowitz" which you gave us back in '2000? We were neighbors across the street in Weisbaden, Germany. We listened to the CD while we reminisced about days gone by. Christmas caroling with you leading the neighborhood was fondly remembered. Tis the season to send our warmest wishes for God's blessings.
With love,
Janet, Ron and Jackie Witt


PS Maybe "cream puffs" will help to jog your memory...

Hello Tony, this is Brandi. I spoke to you today on the phone about fixing your mac. I promised I would look you up! It really was a pleasure speaking with you. I was glad to find some of your music is on itunes. I was not able to download the music from this site to be able to listen to it. ( it is a compatibility issue) Anyhow, you have some beautiful work. I really hope all is well and your mac is running as it should.

Yo Tony -- Outstanding!  You really hit the mark on your CD, "THIS IS TONY HOROWITZ."  Wonderful creativity, execution, arranging and all around musical brilliance!  No Shit!  You blew me away as well as inspired me to pick up where I left of as a composer, etc.  Keep it coming!

Subject: Got cd, thanks

Dear Tony
 

What a joy, after a long day of jury duty, to find your wonderful cd in the mail. Thank you, thank you. It was so uplifting to hear the beautiful music and your vocals as well.

I was so touched with your dedication of  "Make Today Count", to Allan.

You know it meant a lot to us, when at his funeral you hired your friend to play Make Today Count on the guitar. What a big heart you have, and you convey it through your music. But also when blood was needed, and we were going to donate, you said "I've got it" and you had your buddies go and give blood, along with you, in Allan's name.
 

I have never forgotten your acts of kindness to us at that trying time, and am  so sorry it took me so long to find you and tell you. Thanks to the world of the internet anything is possible, n'est pas?

Wishing you and Naomi the best.
 

Dotty

The world will be forever grateful for you Tony, in bringing bebop to Germany and Austria.....
Like Thelonius Monk's reply when asked to define jazz, he said, "Jazz is freedom - think about it?"

Only a free people - free in spirit as well as in their government can get behind jazz......

Congratulations on your anniversary

Tony,

I saw your post on the Grove forum and thought I would say hello.

Fino Roverato and I still talk of you and think of you often.

My life and career are a miracle and you were a a big factor way back when.

My very best to you and hope to catch up with you soon.

Troy Dexter,

Dear Tony,

 
Listened to your CD "Pas Y Amor" last night, I can't find the words to describe the feeling we got, remembering the memories of the past while listening to you play.
 
All we can say is "you've come a long way since then"  and it makes us feel great to have known you at the early stages of your career.
 
All the tunes were very impressive and good listening. Your arrangements and renditions were very interesting and very musical, the group sounded wonderful.
 
We liked them all especially "Tomorrow and Cote D Azur" <Mimi is from there. Your technical  abilities," Outstanding" , your feeling and soulful expressions were easily absorbed by the listeners, Tony, a superb presentation!
 
Thanks ever so much for bringing back some great music into our lives. We'll be listening to the others as soon as we can.
 
God bless you and keep you and Naomi well.
 
Love
Ben and Mimi

Thanks Tony.
Armed with this harmonic knowledge I will be more than a conqueror.  I will see you next week when I return. Your presentation was simple, direct, and best of all "student friendly."  It all makes sense. 

 
We had a fantastic time in Berlin this weekend.
God Bless

Hi Tony


I know it's been years. When we were neighbors on Stagg St. and you were so kind when my then husband, Allan Rabinowitz, was ill and passed away. So I was thinking of that time and you and Googled you and saw how well you are doing. I never forgot how you helped us through that difficult time.

Tony,


Great music! As I am originally from Texas, I went straight to your Texas Trumpet Album and played all the sound clips. They are super! I can certainly see what you mean by mucho practicing and proper warm ups!
Would love to hear you LIVE when you are up from Grafenwöhr to Wiesbaden, which is only 15 km from our village of Kelkheim.


All the best,  Glenn & family
