+ Ernest Read Symphony Orchestra (ERSO)

'The Ernest Read Symphony Orchestra (ERSO) was founded in 1931 by Ernest Read, a pioneer in the development of music education and youth orchestras during the first half of the 20th century ... Read’s daughter and son-in-law ran ERSO for many years after his death and following their retirement in 1998, the charity Music Illuminated was founded to manage ERSO and continue Ernest Read’s work ... ERSO presents a series of five concerts each year, combining high quality performance with an approachable style of presentation.'
