Interesting reading the other comments here to see how Wynton attracts varying opinion but overall admired. I recall seeing him at Spray farm,nearGeelong when he came to Australia.

Wow - what an absolutely gorgeous voice your lovely young daughter has ! You must be so proud . Seeing you two performing together on stage has got me tearing up a bit
