Brian Luck (1935-2024)

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Brian Luck in the early hours of Thursday 10th October 2024.

It is particuly poignant that Brain passed away only 4 days after his friend Leigh Thomas.

They had been friends since 1966 and played in many bands and orchestras together including Brian’s Moonlight Serenaders and of course the Havering Concert Orchestra. Brian and Joan (Brian’s wife) met Leigh and his wife Georgie in the Redbridge Symphony Orchestra in 1966. The Luck and the Thomas families were a major part of the Havering Concert Orchestra. Our Trustee and former Chairman, Paul Kelly, says “Brian and Joan, and Leigh and Georgina, are true HCO royalty”.

We will be dedicating our Christmans Concert to both Brian and Leigh, both will be missed very much.

We will be releasing Brian’s bio soon.
