We are very sad to announce that we say a fond farewell to Musical Director, Jonathan Abbott, who is leaving us for pastures new.
Jonathan has had a long association with the orchestra, initially via his father, then assisting Colin from 2010, to principal conductor in 2015.
Under his direction, Jonathan has taken SBMS from strength to strength, challenging us with a variety of pieces from Korngold, Gershwin, Beethoven, Elgar, and more. We’re very grateful for everything that Jonathan has done during his time with us and wish him all the best for the future.
