Bruce Robertson plays his albatross bone and crayfish leg flutes at a lunchtime concert in Cathedral Square yesterday. He is a former teacher who works with Auckland-based theatre groups and specialises in "found music." This entails using any natural objects he finds and fashioning holes in them to create wind instruments or arranging them to produce percussion sounds. Mr Robertson found his albatross bone while wandering the sands of Ninety Mile Beach.
