Small Moments of Glory: A Musical Memoir: the man behind the mighty Hunters and Collectors horn section

Description

Small Moments of Glory tells the insightful and illuminating tale of Jack Howard's lifelong musical journey - from his early classical music years through to the heady days of leading the horns section in iconic Australian rock bank band, Hunters & Collectors. He toured world-wide with Midnight Oil in 2017 on their Great Circle tour and his blog from that time formed the basis for this book.
