About London Symphony Orchestra

London Symphony Orchestra (LSO) musicians make visits throughout the year to hospitals, early years and adult day centres, using music to respond to health and wellbeing challenges. Further specially tailored activities include LSO Create for neurodiverse and/or disabled adults, their carers and supporters, where group members compose, improvise and create music together.

LSO works closely with community partners to deliver projects that have the greatest impact for local people, such as LSO Connect, which aims to bring live music to sometimes isolated older local residents. LSO also supports community-led initiatives including the Community Gamelan Group and the St Clement’s Community Choir.
