Introducing a new Visual Identity
The feature artwork at the top of this page has the LSO’s music directly embedded within it.
Sir Simon Rattle was filmed conducting excerpts from Elgar’s Variations on an Original Theme, ‘Enigma’ using motion-capture technology in June 2016.
The data from this capture has been artistically developed into an animated short film, the stills from which make up the feature artwork in our 2017/18 season guide. You can watch the film and find out more at our 2017/18 season microsite alwaysmoving.lso.co.uk.
