Allen also asked me to include the following video saying, "For sheer amazingness there is also another piece you might consider adding to the one above. It is called Mihaly Borbely - sax. It opens with him introducing a musician on a concert stage. I think the musician is called Varga Szoltan and he is playing what looks like a very small cello with a stick as opposed to a bow and it is a duo with Mihaly. This man dances as well. It is great."

"After many years during which only the guitarist Louis Stewart was consistently connected with the international jazz world, many Irish jazz musicians have developed relationships with counterparts elsewhere, notably through involvement with jazz education. Opportunities for Irish audiences to hear, and for Irish musicians to play with, leading international jazz figures have also been increasing steadily. Individual enthusiasts have played an important role in this movement: the architect Allen Smith established Jazz on the Terrace as a vehicle for the promotion of jazz concerts from 1982 and has been associated with the Improvised Music Company from 1991."
