Probably Hans would do anything to get away from summer in Germany; even
going to Christchurch in their winter. I was in the city in July and liked
the city (winter isn't bad there). Only thing I really didn't care much for
was the giant ice cream cone near cathedral square.Melted down it could be
made into a lot of horns.  I suppose Hans left most of his money in the
Casino in town. 

One might very well think that, but I couldn't possibly comment...

On the long call when the air exited Han's instrument did it
swirl clockwise or counter-clockwise on the high notes?

Hmmm... the antipodean gyroscopic effect - well I wouldn't be surprised
if he had built a special antipodean correction factor key into his horn
- whatever, the notes came out perfectly.

 Other than sitting in with the orchestra, did Hans get a chance to play with  the 
 All Blacks (or is it All Backs)?

Who knows? but on that same night half the town would have been at the
provincial Ranfurly Shield rugby match - not quite a full house in the
Town Hall.

But town Hall is quite big with 2644 seats for a city like Christchurch
with 250.000 population. 

I never sit when playing solo.

Last visit in a casino was 1969 in Stockholm.
