Champions

Our ‘Champions’ are the musicians we think showcase their instrument to the wider public, and make a substantial difference to the popularity of their instrument family.

Non of the ‘Champions’ are remitted in any way by Ted’s List, and our list is completely impartial.  Most of the Ted’s Champions are supportive of our website, and have been publicly grateful for their nomination.  The remaining ‘Champions’, as far as we know, are still unaware of how much we love their playing.  We have written to their managers or agents and are still awaiting a response.

If you have a favourite musician you would like to nominate to be added to our list of ‘Champions’, then please do contact us.
