Concert tribute to a musical maestro


INSPIRATIONAL Maidstone mu- sician JeffreyVaughan-Martin will be remembered at a one-off concert in the town in the spring. Musicians from across the region


have been queuing up to take part in the tribute to the multi-talented music maestro, who died last year, after a lifetime devoted to the art and many years as leader of the Maid- stone Choral Union and the Maid- stone Singers. The concert, entitled Celebrating


Jeffrey – A Life in Music, will be at Mote Hall, in the centre of town, at 3pm on Sunday, March 19. A collection of 80 players are ex-


pected to form the “JVM All Stars” and more than 100 singers will come together in a JVM Choir, from the groups that have featured in his life. These include Maidstone Youth Music Society (MYMS) and West Malling Community Choir, with performances promised by Paul Beniston, FraserBowles and percus- sionist Evelyn Glennie. Set pieces will include personal favourites of the musician and con-


ductor, including the Dambusters March.


Proceeds from the concert will


help establish a Jeffrey Vaughan Martin bursary, supporting young musicians from the area. Mr Vaughan Martin, whowas 78,


and lived atArran Road, Maidstone, studied maths and music at the Uni- versity of Wales and then went to Oxford University before moving to the town in 1978. He worked as a

and directing a number of signifi- cant musical ventures. In 1978 he founded the Kent School Symphonic Wind Band, renamed the Kent YouthWind Orchestra in 1985 after its numbers grew. Jeffrey setupthe MaidstoneYouth
