Appreciations

“The club goes out of its way to offer opportunities for students in the town, from workshops
with professional musicians to free tickets for concerts. Luton Music Club is something the
town should be very proud of.”

MEL COYLE, COURSE MANAGER FOR MUSIC AT LUTON 6TH FORM COLLEGE

“I have a great admiration for the achievement of the Luton Music Club… I also have a very
happy memory of my last visit to the Club and of enjoying its friendly atmosphere.”

SIR LENNOX BERKELEY

“Luton Music provides each year a wonderful programme of quality classical music played by
professional musicians of the highest calibre. It makes an immense contribution to Luton’s
vibrant music culture and enables local music lovers, young and old, to hear fine live music in
the centre of Luton. It complements the work of the Luton Music Service and especially
Luton’s superb and nationally renowned Youth Music.”

KELVIN HOPKINS MP

“I am quite certain that the variety and richness of English musical life stem from the
enterprise of organisations like the Luton Music Club. With imaginative programme planning
and a diversity of accomplished guest performers, the Luton club has been able to provide
its audiences with constant stimulation and artistic rewards for some decades. I trust it will
always have the support it truly merits.”

SIR MICHAEL TIPPETT


“I can say, without fear of contradiction, that no other music club in Britain provides such rich
and varied fare for such a reasonable price. The performers are of the very highest standard,
the choice of music wonderfully varied. Remember, if you want live music to survive in Luton,
it’s not up to somebody else – it’s up to YOU!”

ANTONY HOPKINS CBE

“Congratulations to the Luton Music Club… for its enterprise, scope and diversity… I may add
that I am most proud and grateful that two concerts are being devoted to my works in
celebration of my 80th birthday…”

SIR WILLIAM WALTON
