It’s been a BAC Week !

A BAC Week I say. Does that mean “Bad Alfa Crazy”? πŸ™€ No, it means “Best American Craftsmen”. BAC is a company in Kansas City where we import top quality Trumpets and Trombones. They are well made and have American names for their various models of trumpets and trombones.

On Monday, we sold a pre-loved Buffet E13 Clarinet. Top makes of clarinets are the Selmer’s, Backun’s, Buffet’s and Yamaha’s. Teachers and students alike love the sound they produce and the ease of playing. On Wednesday, we had a BAC Portland Model Trumpet find a new home in Auckland. The student tried it and loved the look and the sound of this fantastic new trumpet. Later that afternoon a gentleman tested an EEb B&S Tuba and made a beautiful sound from it. Daddy as you know plays tuba and he really liked this one. On Thursday, another BAC Trumpet was sold. This one was a Silver plated New York Model. This is our first New York model sold in New Zealand and the customer will be up next week to collect his new baby. We love seeing the happy faces of the people when they come in and buy and pick up their new instruments and start their new adventures in music 😻

Again it is another weekend where we haven’t seen much of Daddy. Brass Quintet rehearsal on Friday night, Collecting stands and music for Sundays performance with the Howick Brass in two services for ANZAC Day. The first performance was at 6am on Sunday morning and later at 11am. Today is Monday and it is a holiday because of ANZAC Day arriving on the Sunday. This morning it was Brass Quintet rehearsal and later today at 5pm, Daddy will be performing again with the Howick Brass Band in an ANZAC Concert. Poor Mommy. She is having to look after us and organises everything here.

I have personally set up some sales for Alfa this week as she has a short week. I am still the Master seller but humble enough to share my talent with Alfa 😺. Be good everybody and try your best to be like me 😸😸😸
