The touching friendship between jazz man James Morrison and his long-time mentor Don Burrows is the focus of this week’s encore program, following Burrows' death from Alzheimer's disease in a Sydney nursing home last month.
When 16-year-old music student James met the legendary jazz maestro in 1978, it was one of the biggest turning points in his life.
After hearing James play, Don immediately took the young trumpeter under his wing, becoming his mentor and inviting him to join the Burrows band
It was the beginning of an enduring friendship, both on stage and off and as Don's health faded, James became his legal guardian and stepped up to help care for his friend.
A tribute to the late Don Burrows, who died on March 12, 2020.
