London Incidental Orchestra presents: Classical Music at Christmas

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

The London Incidental Orchestra is an exciting, innovative ensemble, comprised of talented musicians from all walks of life. It was established to provide performance opportunities to accomplished individuals who have trained as musicians but have subsequently gone on to progress in other fields. At the heart of the orchestra is an inimitable passion for music and the drive to share it with anyone who will listen.

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, arranged by Jake Muffett, and commissioned by London Incidental Orchestra.) After a short interval there will be a brief discussion on Beethoven’s youthful Symphony No 1. 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…
