   We have one previous conductor about whom there is practically no information – J Fletcher Sykes – see our full history. If anyone has any snippets of information about him or can suggest where we might try to source information we would be particularly interested to hear from them. Basically we know his name and that he was briefly our conductor.

     Hi Chris, You’ve put this in as a comment. What is different in what you’ve said to the post that already profiles Natalia under Conductors? I just wanted to clarify what you had in mind… Thx. Best, Peter
