The Concert
Make lunchtime musical with a free, bite-size concert, suitable for everyone over the age of 5. Hear live music up close, with performances by a small group of LSO String Experience musicians.
This short concert will introduce you to the broad range of orchestral instruments and the exciting world of chamber music. Friendly introductions from our presenter will guide you through the concert, and there is a chance to ask your own burning questions in the Q&A session.
The LSO String Experience scheme enables young string players at the start of their professional careers to gain work experience by playing in rehearsals and concerts with the LSO.
Not suitable for under-5s.
