By joining the Society, members can be kept informed about concerts and of other activities of the two bands, including details of auditions. Through this, members who know of suitable young candidates can pass on details of the auditions and details of how to apply.
Dr Newsome has agreed to act as Secretary of the Friends for the first year.
