PS: Chris (http://www.chrisacquavella.com/) is a protégé of Alison. He is based in the US, but tours the UK with some frequency. You may want to drop him a line as well, just in case...

Unfortunately, one of the greatest proponents of classical mandolin, UK denizen Alison Stephens, is recently deceased. She was a student of the late Hugo D'Alton, was loved, and is missed. She taught at Trinity College: http://www.trinitylaban.ac.uk/. I don't know if she was replaced on the faculty or if any of her students are active in the north. You may want to drop a line to Ian at [email protected]. He should know who is doing what well related to mandolinning in the northern UK.

Wanted for an engagement in North Yorkshire later this year. Modest fee/expenses available. Would be an advantage to be able to play violin with a small chamber group for other pieces in the show.
