Community music projects always spread harmonyGǪ donGÇÖt they?

When players in Stockwell Park Orchestra fear they may be getting out of touch with the community, they invite children from two nearby schools to join them for a season.

Supercilious, rich Oakdean College pupils have never mixed with the rough Sunbridge Academy kids, and when things go missing and rumours spread, the situation threatens to turn ugly. DCI Noel Osmar has to tread carefully: after all, heGÇÖs off duty. Step forward, Carl the trombonist.

Can music heal social rifts? Who has been stealing and why? And will the orchestraGÇÖs newly-composed fanfare turn out to be fantasticGǪ or farcical?

GǣFriendly insults between musicians, sacrosanct coffee-and-biscuit breaks, tedious committee meetings: welcome to the world of the amateur orchestra.Gǥ BBC Music Magazine

GǣGǪa witty and irreverent musical romp, full of characters IGÇÖd love to go for a pint with. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the Stockwell Park Orchestra and cant wait for the next book in the series.Gǥ Claire King, author of The Night Rainbow

Sharp, witty and richly entertaining. Lev Parikian, author of Why Do Birds Suddenly Disappear?

GǣWith its retro humour bordering on farce, this novel offers an escape into the turbulent (and bonkers) world of the orchestra.Gǥ Isabel Costello, author of Paris Mon Amour
