Leonard sang bass for 24 years in MOSAIC in an Acapella ensemble singing group compiled and directed by his late wife Annette Hamilton. They did, “Bach to the Beatles”, in four part harmony with Dominic their son on flute on occasion. His solo journey started during lockdown when he joined Clive Ridgway for song writing courses that culminated in an album called, “Hawks and Doves”. Since then he has included Dominic, “who cut his teeth at UCT jazz band playing saxophone and flute”, in various bands playing at Barristers, MAC, Kelvin Grove and the Barleycorn music club singing originals and popular covers. The most recent band is called, “Osmosus”. That comprises Eric Aproskie on bass who has won the,” battle of the bands” numerous times. Dominic got a full music scholarship from Sac's junior for Sac's high and then studied at the College of music under conductors Mike Campbell and John Walton. He has grade 8 Trinity certificates for flute and piano. He also plays the saxophone. The 3 part harmonies and groovy groove is what makes it all tick. For "Monty", attempting comedy has always been a bucket list item. "I realise how difficult it is, but want to give it a good go."
