There were two shows yesterday at Hamer Hall in Melbourne of 'Phar Lap in Concert'.
The Southern Cross Symphony Orchestra conducted by Peter Morris played Bruce Rowland's award-winning Score as the film was projected on the big screen.
I introduced the event, sharing some memories of making the movie back in 1983.
The reaction from both audiences was very warm and appreciative.
Many thanks to all involved.
The 'Celebrating 100 Years' refers to the birth of the great horse in 1926 in Timaru, New Zealand.
