Escape the cold and warm up with our friendly and immersive programme of classical music at St John’s Waterloo on Thursday 30th November 2017.

​

Conducted (and presented) by Alexander Conway, the orchestra are delighted to present Mendelsohn’s Hebrides Overture, followed by a Christmas Sinfonia (a selection of festive tunes commissioned by the LIO). After a short interval there will be a brief discussion on Beethoven’s youthful Symphony No.1 - his symphonic debut.

​

What makes this symphony special? What should any newcomers to classical music be listening out for? What do Notorious B.I.G and Beethoven have in common?

​

There is a relaxed dress code at all our concerts and we encourage all newcomers to explore classical music with us… we may even try to ply you with a glass of mulled wine or three…
