The Society has been in existence for many years, principally for the playing of classical recorded music using the Society's own equipment in three formats - CD, Cassette and LP. We are a small group averaging about twenty at each of our weekly meetings. Knowledge of classical music is not at all necessary, merely an enthusiasm for it and its sharing with other like-minded folk.Visitors are always welcome to join us as a temporary member for an evening.

Meetings are held each Friday beginning at 7.30pm and ending by 10.00 pm. at the Tettenhall Wood Institute, Wood Road, Tettenhall Wood. Wolverhampton.
