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.

Hi Tony,
I love your sound and am currently
with Yamaha as a performing
artist.....big deal.....!!
Anyway, tired of there horns and not
being able to find what I am looking
for. I have a Calicchio 1s2 with #7,
#3, #9 & #10 pipes.............so
far the #7 seems to be the most all
around lead/club horn with the 1s
bell--plumbed in with a hook for
now. What model(s) do you play on
and the finish you
have...........sure would appreciate
the info as I "dial in" my Calicchio..........Great
horn!!
thanks much,
John Pederson

Subject: Got cd, thanks
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.

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

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.
