Neil Chaffey studied music at Manchester University and the Royal Northern College of Music. During twenty years he pursued a career as a teacher (Director of Music at the King's School, Macclesfield), during which time he was Organist & Choirmaster at the Parish Church, a founder member of the Music Society (with 426 members at one time!), Artistic Director of the Arts Festivals from 1966 to 1972, and Musical Director of the King Edward Musical Society's Choir & Orchestra; he also found time to work as composer and adjudicator.

During this long period he was always motivated by the way in which music could enhance the quality of life in the community for all ages, and it is this desire to see top class music in all regions of the UK,which was and still is a strong driving force behind his work as an Artists' Manager.Activities also include London promotions at the Wigmore Hall & Purcell Room, as well as working in Europe and further afield.

All the Ensembles and Artists he represents have proven records as first rate musicians with a total commitment to the art of music.
