Two of his notable students were Edwin Bélanger and William Ifor Jones.
In 1926 he founded the London Junior Orchestra, one of the earliest youth symphonies in England.
That orchestra spawned 4 more youth orchestras in the city of London and 11 affiliate youth orchestras throughout Great Britain.
In 1931 Read founded the Ernest Read Symphony Orchestra( ERSO), a professional orchestra with a commitment to performing concerts accessible to children as well as adults.
He conducted the orchestra up until his death 34 years later, taking it to concerts in schools, concert halls and for the BBC.
