The reviewer for our concert on 2nd March 2024, David Pestell said "Much of the credit must go to Mr Bond, whose clarity and balanced choice of speeds made these performances very special.  For an orchestra used to playing grand 19th century works, what a pleasure it was to hear the expansive sound of a large and very talented set of string players led expertly and enthusiastically by Flo Peycelon."

"The Schumann Piano Concerto was full of melody and exquisitely phrased by local soloist Adrian Oldland.  It was clear from the outset that we were in the hands of a master musician and one whose affection for the composer shone through this poignant and joyous interpretation.  There was a splendid partnership between players and soloist.  Particularly impressive was the delicate playing of all four woodwind sections."
