Had the same programme been played by the worlds top orchestra it would have impressed me no more profoundly. Seeing such music played by so many familiar faces made it an evening never to forget Crescendo February 2009
The audience voted with their feet, not in the negative sense, but by drumming them on the floor another memorable concert Downs Mail December 2007
Their sound and musicality are outstanding The Stage May 2005
The string sound is clear and incisive, the brass impeccably tuned and
the percussion have that clockwork sense of timing which always leaves me
gasping with admiration. The woodwind section is pretty good too! No, Im
not in a pricey London venue enjoying the LSO or a top visiting orchestra,
Im at Mote Hall, Maidstone, on a damp Saturday night, listening to the
Maidstone Symphony Orchestra. (The Stage, 2005)
