LMO Website gets a makeover
No more Pacific Road
LMO former Secretary awarded Life Membership
John Cunningham, outgoing orchestra Secretary, has been voted life membership of the LMO to mark a remarkable two decades of service to the Orchestra
This season sees the continuation of Mark's pre-concert talks at which he explain aspects of the concert programme and may take the opportunity to interview soloists or other individuals associated with the work of the LMO. There is no additional charge for attending these sessions and we hope very much you will come along, get yourself a pre-concert drink and gain an insight into the works you are about to hear.
Support the LMO
With an eye on the future the LMO launches a new Patron Scheme as it celebrates past achievements
With apologies for the American terminology (but then “work experience student” is such a mouthful), we’re pleased to introduce to you Liz Barnes, who is going to be helping us out with our administration.
Well, we expect you have noticed that if you have got this far! We hope you like the new design. Please let us have feedback good or bad (constructively please - we are sensitive…)

with a fitting final concert featuring the double reed in general and, of course, the oboe in particular.
Pacific Road Closed
Pacific Road Arts Centre is now closed. Our May concert is at the Floral Pavilion, New Brighton and news of future concerts and venues for next season can be found under the “Moving On” link above. For more news of the orchestra, why not add yourself to our email list by contacting the Secretary at sectretary@livemozart.com
Our concert on 31 March was the last event at Pacific Road before its closure. Our May concert will take place at the Floral Pavilion Conference Centre, just a couple of miles away, on the seafront in New Brighton. Box office arrangements are unchanged.
Looking further ahead, we are pleased to report that arrangements and dates are now in place for our 2012-13 season.
We bid a very fond goodbye - or hopefully au revoir - to LMO oboist, David Norris, in our last concert of this season. His retirement from the band comes when he is still a formidable player - he entertained us at the first rehearsal for our May concert by breezing through the solo part for the Strauss concerto!
David is not quite ready to hang up his oboe entirely (if that’s what you do with an oboe when it’s resting!), and lucky concert-goers will still catch him playing at various events around Merseyside and North Wales.
There will no doubt be much said about David's outstanding contribution to the orchestra in over 40 years as player, principal, committee member and staunch supporter but for now we say simply “thank you”
