Conference
Friday Lunchtime Concert: LSO Soundhub
Organised by London Symphony Orchestra
Want to know more about classical music but not sure where to start? Make the most of your lunchbreak and enjoy a free, 45-minute informal concert at LSO St Luke’s.
Today we hear music by composers supported through the LSO Soundhub Scheme, including brand new pieces by Electra Perivolaris and Ben Gaunt. Rising by Darren Bloom and The Spell and the Promise by Jasmin Kent Rodgman were both written for films created during lockdown, celebrating the creative energy of the City of London. Today is the first time they are performed to a live audience.
There will be introductions from our presenter, who will tell you more about the music and the instruments, and you’ll have the chance to ask the musicians your own burning questions.
Each concert begins at 12.30pm and lasts for 45 minutes.
