I know that many of our regular audience members are interested primarily in orchestral concerts but, whilst the dream of professional orchestral concerts in the Watford area remains unfulfilled, I hope that you will take the opportunity to find delight and inspiration from other musical forms.

In programming this series I have tried to retain the links with artists who featured in our concerts at the Colosseum and to retain some hint of orchestral flavour through including well-known orchestral works in alternative transcriptions.  

For 2011-12 we are again deeply grateful for the support of The Purcell School in providing their hall at short notice when other plans fell through. As a result of this The Purcell School Symphony Orchestra will be returning to Watford Colosseum: we had planned to present this concert within the subscription series but unfortunately issues of data protection made this impossible. We do urge you to continue to support the orchestra by going to the concert on 30th October but recommend paying cash and avoiding the venue’s £1.50 per ticket booking charge.

If we are to move forwards we need to cover costs this season and raise additional funds so we hope that all our supporters will donate generously in order to help create a sustainable and developing programme. More and more people are embracing our online services not only ticket sales but email information services and programme downloads. This not only saves us money but allows more efficient use of resources as well as helping us produce a greener, cleaner operation. Last season the demand for subscription tickets greatly exceeded our capacity so do please book early and donate generously to avoid disappointment. I am really excited by these programmes and another great series of concerts.

All performances take place at the Constance Pilkington Hall, The Purcell School and I look forward to seeing you there.

Artistic Director, Classic Concerts Trust
