During this time, he was involved in a number of youth orchestras, joining the Halle Youth Orchestra on their 2013 tour of the North East of England and being principal horn of the Liverpool Philharmonic Youth Orchestra.
Whilst with the LPYO, Timothy has been able to perform in projects with Vasily Patrenko and Christian Lindberg.

Josh Bartram ♦ Timothy Doyle ♦ Elliott Howley ♦ Stephen Payne
Elliott Howley
Elliott Howley is currently a third year student at the academy, having started playing at the age of twelve. Elliott is being taught by Richard Watkins having previously being taught by Michael Thompson and Stuart Bower.
During Elliott's time as a horn player he has played with a variety of youth orchestras and ensembles, one of the highlights having played Mahler's Ninth Symphony in the BBC Proms, under the baton of Sir Mark Elder as part of the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain. More recently Elliott has been involved with projects with the Britten-Pears Orchestra - working with Semyon Bychkov, at the Snape proms - and the Orion Orchestra. Elliott is also interested in chamber music being a member of several different groups and performing with them regularly, one of particular interest being this horn quartet, formed at the Academy. |
Josh Bartram
Josh Bartram is a student at the Royal Academy of Music, studying the French horn under Michael Thompson and Richard Watkins, and conducting under Sian Edwards, Dominic Grier and Raymond Holden.
Having studied an eclectic mix of subjects at Wells Cathedral School (his A-levels include philosophy, Latin, music, maths and further maths), he eventually settled on his love for music. Since starting at the Academy, he has played with ensembles such as the London Mahler Orchestra, the Britten-Pears Orchestra and the Notting Hill Film Orchestra, alongside playing in the Academy symphony orchestra, and he has conducted the Bartram Symphony Orchestra for its third concert now. Josh particularly enjoys the works of lesser-known composers, such as those of Fibich, Dohnanyi and Tyberg. He believes that while they are not so popular, there is no reason why this ought to be the case, and so endeavours to make them better-known and more widely performed. Since coming to London, he has become a member of King’s Cross Church, where he continues to grow in his love for Jesus. |

Tallis: If Ye Love Me
The brass ensemble is called Five Cents Sharp, a title which seems to have been taken literally by the vidographer.
Please ignore the fuzzy pictures and just listen to the lovely music.
Tallis's original vocal work is sung by the Gesualdo Six, under their director Owain Park.
