The London Charity Orchestra (LCO) was established in February 1999 by a
taxi driver, the late David Todhunter (also founder of the Beethoven
Philharmonic), in response to an invitation to conduct a fund-raising
concert in support of the Whizz Kidz charity. The success of that initial concert by the orchestra enabled the LCO to develop into its own present form; an orchestra comprising of a mix of professional musicians, music students and experienced amateurs brought together by their desire to make a contribution to charitable causes through their love and promotion of music. Since then, the orchestra has continued to grow in both size and quality and over the past year has performed at Holy Trinity and St. John's, Smith Square, in aid of The British Heart Foundation, HMD Response, The Alzheimer's Society and many other worthy causes. |

With this in mind, the LCO will be performing at the
Hippodrome, Golders Green in aid of The London Taxidrivers' Fund for
Underprivileged Children on 22nd March 2003 as part of the Fund's 75th
anniversary celebratory events. If you are a Dial-a-Cab driver with a classical musical background and consider yourself to be a competent musician - or know someone else who fits that description - and would like to play with the LCO, auditions will be held in the coming weeks. |
If you are interested please phone or write to the Fund's Chairman, Mike
Son, giving your experience and other relative information.
