We are very sad to have to report the passing recently of Anula Nikapota, one of the orchestra's longest-standing members and our leader for a number of years. She will be missed terribly as a precious friend and as a musician. Our condolences to Vijita Nikapota, her husband and also a long-standing member, and to their family.

Despite the long lockdown we are still here and working together to keep the orchestra's spirit.

Although it looks unlikely that we will be able to hold our December concert we have a series of workshops planned, the first two of which took place recently. Pandemic permitting, the next will be held in October. We also met for (socially distanced) picnics in the park in the late Summer.
