Community music projects always spread harmony... don't 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, he's off duty. Step forward, Carl the trombonist. Can
music heal social rifts? Who has been stealing and why? And will
the orchestra's newly-composed fanfare turn out to be fantastic...
or farcical? Praise for The Stockwell Park Orchestra Series: "I was
charmed... a very enjoyable read." Marian Keyes "Friendly insults
between musicians, sacrosanct coffee-and-biscuit breaks, tedious
committee meetings: welcome to the world of the amateur orchestra."
BBC Music Magazine "...a witty and irreverent musical romp, full of
characters I'd love to go for a pint with. I thoroughly enjoyed
getting to know the Stockwell Park Orchestra and can't wait for the
next book in the series." Claire King, author of The Night Rainbow
"Sharp, witty and richly entertaining." Lev Parikian, author of Why
Do Birds Suddenly Disappear? "With its retro humour bordering on
farce, this novel offers an escape into the turbulent (and bonkers)
world of the orchestra." Isabel Costello, author of Paris Mon Amour
"...a very funny tale of musical shenanigans set in the febrile
atmosphere of the Stockwell Park Orchestra" Ian Critchley
