The Late Sir John Manduell CBE, FRAM, FRCM, FRNCM, FRSAMD


Our Distinguished former BIMC President

Sir John Manduell died on Wednesday, 25th October 2017, aged 89. It has brought to an end a gigantic presence in the world of music for even though he had been unable to take an active part for several years, he accomplished much in terms of guidance for all those - and there were many - he cared about.

He particularly had an affection for The Bromsgrove which he served so loyally first as Chairman of the Adjudicators and latterly as our first President. Sir John will always be remembered with affection by all those who had contact with him.
