London Contemporary Orchestra
“Young, free and singularly special...there's a new kid on the block” The Daily Telegraph
London Contemporary Orchestra draws together London’s brightest young talent to explore and promote new music to an increasingly wide audience. Formed in 2008, the LCO has worked alongside artists including Matmos, Jonny Greenwood, Biosphere, Mark-Anthony Turnage, Mira Calix, United Visual Artists, Mara Carlyle and Foals, and commissioned music from emerging composers Emily Hall, Shiva Feshareki and Anna Meredith. Recent highlights include Aldeburgh Music’s ‘Faster Than Sound’, the Spitalfields Festival, Latitude Festival, and Frank Zappa’s The Yellow Shark at the Roundhouse. In May 2010 LCO was shortlisted for the Royal Philharmonic Society Music Awards (Audience Development category). LCO’s performances have been broadcast on BBC Radio 3 and Sky Arts.
