ABOUT US

​

The Café Latte Orchestra (CLO) was established in 2005 by Mark Walton. He invited his amateur woodwind friends to join, and Mark arranged wonderful music for them to play with parts that were a perfect match for their playing level.

 

Now, nearly twenty years later the Café Latte Orchestra still gathers 2 to 3 times a year in different locations around Australia and New Zealand to explore new repertoire and renew old friendships. There are well over 100 members of the Orchestra, and they choose which workshops they would like to attend.

​

In recent times we have incorporated some string and brass players into the ensemble, but the group is largely a woodwind orchestra. Everyone loves playing under the musical guidance of the skillful and very entertaining Mark Walton.

​

The Café Latte Orchestra plays a wonderful range of stimulating music with most of the repertoire being drawn from the classical masters. The CLO is a very happy family of musicians, where age or ability is not an issue but enjoying the music and the very special company most definitely is.
