IAN BROWN (Piano)
AM
The first of the three welcome return visits to the B.M.S. this
season is this extremely talented duo of brother and sister who first
played for the B.M.S. in October, 1969, when they also opened the
Society's Concert Season and immediately established their popu-
larity with the Society. We have been hoping to organise a return
visit ever since.
During the years between, Iona Brown has established herself as
one of the finest of our National Violin Soloists.

Pepys with a programme entitled "And So To Musick".

ROGER VIGNOLES (Piano)
Anthony
Saunder
Special attraction this season is the fact that the Society has been
able to arrange a seventh Concert: the number which the Society
used to provide.
Lawrence Foster is a young 'cellist from America who studied at
the Juilliard School of Music in New York and later with William
Pleeth in London. He gave his first Concert at the age of 8, and
at the age of 13 won the Stillman Kelley Award of the N.F.M.S.,
and was in 1975 one of the finalists in the Leeds International
Platform.
Roger Vignoles studied at Cambridge and subsequently at the
Royal College of Music, where he won two major accompanist's
prizes. He has since accompanied many world-famous artists. He
was also, for two and a half years, a repetiteur at the Royal Opera
House, Covent Garden.
