Next season is the centenary season of the Brent Symphony Orchestra, (formerly the Willesdon Symphony Orchestra, and before that I believe the Harlesdon Symphony Orchestra).
It was conducted for very many years by Harry Legge, who was a founder member of the RPO under Beecham and who started The Rehearsal Orchestra in Edinburgh in 1957. The Brent Symphony Orchestra is now conducted by Lev Parikian. Some members of the orchestra are compiling a history of the orchestra so that it can be available for sale during the centenary season. If you ever played at Brent Symphony Orchestra, or have friends or family who played in the orchestra, and you have anecdotes of events there, particularly from more distant times, please contact me off-list so I can put you in touch with those compiling the history. Many thanks Jonathan West _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at https://pegasus.memphis.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
