Congratulations to our Managing Director Kathryn McDowell, who was granted the Freedom of the City of London in a ceremony at the Guildhall yesterday (1 June 2017).

The LSO is delighted to announce the names of the two composers taking part in the 2016 Panufnik Composers Scheme who have received five and ten minute commissions for performance in the LSO's 2017/18 season.

We are delighted to announce two new opportunities for composers to work with and alongside the LSO and LSO staff, for which applications are now open:

Lennox Mackenzie, sub-leader and former Chairman of the London Symphony Orchestra, awarded prestigious RPS/ABO Salomon Prize for orchestral musicians.
