Lymington Town Band is delighted to welcome Tony as our new musical director.

Tony studied trumpet, double bass and conducting at Trinity College of Music, London, before embarking on a very successful career as a freelance trumpet player. Over the years he has toured extensively with artistes such as Gene Pitney – 7 UK tours – Michel LeGrand, Alison Moyet and Jack Jones as well as working for P&O cruises as theatre trumpet player.

Tony has also taught brass at many of the countries top schools, including Westminster Cathedral, Winchester, Bryanston and Sherborne. For twelve years, he was Head of Instrumental Studies at Clayesmore School in Dorset, where he founded the Clayesmore Concert Band, and over the years the band toured Holland, Spain as well as Venice. On leaving Clayesmore, he conducted the Concert Band at Parkstone Grammar School and once again set out to tour Venice, as well as Salzburg.

Referred to as a ‘crossover’ player, Tony is equally happy playing music from the classical repertoire, and for many years was an extra and ‘dep’ with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. Until last year, Tony worked with the education side of the BSO. Tony was a member of the London Palladium orchestra which performed for the 2016/17 award winning production of ‘Cinderella’, starring Paul O’Grady and Julian Clary.

He now runs his own band, specialising in music from the 1920’s and 30′ called ‘Tony Waller and his Prohibition Jazz’, as well as playing tuba in Canzona Brass Quintet.
