Chris Tolley studied Ancient History at St Andrews, and had a couple of music scholarships along the way. He moved to London where he worked for a number of years with Really Useful Group, and progressed from photocopying music, to managing the music dept. After this he went to BBC Radio 2 where he managed and judged an opera talent competition with Dame Kiri Te Kanawa and worked on Friday Night is Music Night, their flagship live classical music programme.
