American music in the Munich Philharmonic Hall. The Radio Orchestra from
Pilsen (Czech Republic) played, and soloists included Orsino (guitar),
Christin Zacher and a remarkable dance duo from Italy. Here is a collage

For the 2006 production of "Die Fledermaus" at the theater
festival in Bad Gandersheim, Lawton made a new version for six
musicians. The ensemble comprised of piano, accordion,
clarinet/saxophone, trumpet, bass and drums. Ten performances were
presented open-air. The production was attended by around 10,000 people
in the course of the summer.
