Ash family entertained
Last Sunday evening, the tables turned as hosts Kenneth Ash and his wife, âthe Pioneer of Christmas Lightsâ in SVG, found themselves being entertained instead by SVGâs connoisseurs of Saxophone: Lio Smith, Tenor; Calvin Glasgow, Alto, and Syl Mc Intosh, Soprano.{{more}}
The Trio, though not a permanent group, is considered by many as the nationâs oldest and âgoldiestâ in the business today. But on this rare occasion and in the true spirit of Christmas, they blended their horns in harmony and serenaded the Ash family and friends on a journey down memory lane, rendering some of the popular âback-in-time musicâ of the 1940âs and 50âs.
The mode for the eveningâs session was earlier punctuated by the versatile and talented duo âKen Isles and Sonâ with their usual wide and varied repertoire of ballads, Rockânâ Roll, Reggae, vintage Kaiso and Oldies as well.
The members of the Nine Mornings Committee were on hand to pay personal tributes to Mr Ash for his role in the development of the Nine Mornings Festival.
