Jenny
Worsley
We are very
saddened to learn that Jenny
Worsley, wife of Peter Worsley,
passed away on August 30th, at
Gloucester Royal Infirmary, after
a protracted illness borne with
great dignity and fortitude.
Peter has been a
very loyal and enthusiastic
supporter of the LLMMG and was,
for many years prior to the
formation of the latter, a
long-standing member of the
Robert Farnon Society. Although
he was not usually able to attend
our London meetings, his constant
input, comments and advice have
been extremely valued.
Our sincere
condolences are extended to Peter
and his family.

David
Lloyd-Jones [1934-2022]
It is with regret
that we record the death –
after a short illness –
of the conductor David
Lloyd-Jones, who passed-away on
June 8th 2022.
The founder of
Opera North, he was principally
associated with the 'serious' end
of the musical spectrum and
showed a particular interest in
British and Russian music.
Mr. Lloyd-Jones
was a prolific recording artiste,
whose name appeared on several
labels, including Philips,
Hyperion, MRF, Marco Polo, Dutton
Epoch, Chandos, Melba and Oriel.
He conducted well
over thirty CDs for the NAXOS
company, including four volumes
of English String Miniatures,
featuring Light Music works by
many celebrated composers,
including Haydn Wood, John
Rutter, George Melachrino, Frank
Cordell, Cecil Armstrong Gibbs,
Philip Lane, Peter Hope, Adam
Carse, Ernest Tomlinson, Gustav
Holst, Paul Lewis, Frederick
Delius and Peter Warlock.
