Our dynamic board of directors are committed to the ethos and principles of AMP and have taken a personal interest in the outcome of the project and its participants. Several of the members have been involved from the beginning and along with the impact of more recent board members, the project has developed to the exceptional standard it has reached to date. Collectively they bring a vast wealth of musical and training experience to the management of the project.
