Want to know more about classical music but not sure where to start? Make the most of your lunch break and enjoy a free, 45-minute informal concert from LSO St Luke’s.
There will be introductions from our presenter, who will tell you more about the music and the instruments, and you’ll have the chance to ask the musicians your own burning questions via the live chat box.
Our relaxed performances are open and welcoming to all, and are especially suited to audience members who may prefer a more relaxed performance style, such as people with autism, sensory and communication impairments, and learning disabilities.

The broadcast features an adapted BSL interpretation which will include more visual and gestural elements. There will also be closed captions provided by StageText and accessible digital programme notes are available: https://lso.shorthandstories.com/lso-discovery-26-feb-21/index.html.
We hope you will join us from the comfort of your own home where you’ll be free to move and make as much noise as you like, just as you would if you were part of the live audience at one of our usual Relaxed Performances! There will also be the opportunity to express your own creativity during the concert, so have your paints, pens or other art materials to hand.
