The City's legal community was to the fore last month at a concert in aid of Asia's tsunami victims. The Asia Relief Chorus and Orchestra, the brainchild of Denton Wilde Sapte (DWS) assistant Nick Zaklama and co-founder Rohan Platts, raised £13,000 at the one-off event at the Barbican. Some 200 musicians - professional, semi-professional and amateur - were organised by an orchestral manager, Rosalind Porter, and a chorus manager, Jane Mabbitt, who is a marketing executive at Bevan Brittan. But the legal connections did not stop there. Among the musicians taking part were DWS senior partner Mark Andrews (horn) and his wife (oboe), as well as violinists from DWS, Linklaters and Lewis Silkin. Meanwhile, the chorus included singers from Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, Lovells, Clyde & Co, and Bevan Brittan. Unfortunately, Mr Zaklama was denied the opportunity to conduct the concert as, apparently, 'due to an unfortunate incident in a taxi the previous week, he was rendered immobile with a broken leg for at least six weeks'. What exactly happened in the taxi was not explained, but, thankfully, conductor Mark Forkgen was able to step in at the last minute.
