| Formed
some 12 years ago by Nigel Morley, the orchestra quickly established
a reputation for performing classical music to a very high
standard. We pride ourselves on a varied, entertaining and
enlightening programme ranging from solo piano with voice,
quartet, octet, nonet, chamber or full orchestral. Many of
the professional players have been with TMS from the early
days, offering a level of performance all can enjoy.
Richard Laing, appointed assistant musical
director last year, takes a more active role during the current
season. and is instrumental in producing another welcome series
of concerts.
