We are very sad to report that Nigel Whitty, our Chair, has resigned his position and is leaving the orchestra. Understandably, he wishes to develop his saxaphone playing in a different context. We wish him every success in the future.

At a Committee meeting on 31 July, Geoff Gibbs agreed to step into the post until our AGM in January 2020 as there was no conflict with his position as librarian.

The Committee has set the orchestra rehearsal dates as follows:

Autumn Term

11 September – 23 October

Half Term

6 November – 11 December

Spring Term

8 January – 12 February

Half Term

26 February – 1 April

Summer Term

22 April – 20 May

Half Term

3 June – 8 July
