Neville, Maude's beautiful husband of 56 years, was the principal flautist for the SSO for over 50 years. Sir Charles Mackerras once said that "Neville Amadio was without doubt the greatest flautist the world produced in the 20th century". Pretty serious.
When Neville performed solos he would practise for hours and hours.
As Maude said "When you are performing in front of a couple of thousand people it doesn't pay to play a bum note darling".
