The highlights of the Fall... first time playing in Macau with a sold out concert at the 32nd Macau International Music Festival in mid October.

Then it was off to Europe for the Fall tour including a London Jazz Festival performance, sitting as a judge for the BBC Young Jazz Musicians competition, Prague and Paris for a rare piano solo concert (pictured above, La Seine Musicale), which was filmed and captured in all its beauty and excitement.

Monty Alexander Notes from the road...

From Macau to Jamaica where Monty received a Doctorate Honoris Causae (Doctor of Letters, DLitt) in November from the prestigious University of the West Indies in Kingston. Yes, the doctor is in! Dr. Monty Alexander that is... you can witness that special moment in the video clip.

On his trip to Jamaica to receive his honorary doctorate Monty visited his long time colleague and friend, legendary guitar master Ernest Ranglin--here they are in a candid shot from late October (left). Last but not least... there was the necessary dip in the Jamaica waters at Dunn's River Falls (right).

The thing that I especially like about Melon playground game is the way it allows players to look at the problem from different perspectives. Every time I want to make a certain scene work or test an interaction, I need to modify some objects and think again about my idea. It turns out to be quite rewarding to find the right configuration for the objects, especially if the result proves to be more surprising than I have expected.

I believe a helpful gaming tutorial should teach the basics without explaining everything at once. New players need enough information to understand the bdg game download controls, objectives, and important mechanics. After that, they should have opportunities to experiment independently. Learning through experience often makes the information easier to remember. Optional advanced tips can help players who want to improve further.
