Bringing wonder to the modern world through the power of orchestral music
关于我们
The London Philharmonic Orchestra is an internationally acclaimed symphony orchestra based at Southbank Centre's Royal Festival Hall. In summer months the Orchestra is Resident at Glyndebourne Festival Opera. The London Philharmonic Orchestra is recognised as one of the world's great orchestras, and following Sir Thomas Beecham's founding tenure the ensemble's Principal Conductorship has been passed from one celebrated musician to another. The current Principal Conductor is Edward Gardner and Karina Canellakis is Principal Guest Conductor. In addition to its concert series in London, Brighton and Eastbourne, the Orchestra has an international touring schedule which in recent years has taken it to the USA, China, Taiwan, Dubai and across Europe. The London Philharmonic Orchestra has long been embraced by the recording, broadcasting and film industries. It enjoys strong relationships with major record labels and in 2005 began releasing live, studio and archive recordings on its own label CDs which are distributed worldwide and are also available as downloads. The Orchestra has broadcast regularly on domestic and international television and radio from both the concert hall and the opera house, and has worked extensively with both Hollywood and the UK film industries, recording soundtracks for blockbuster motion pictures including the Oscar-winning score for The Lord of the Rings trilogy and scores for Lawrence of Arabia, The Mission, East is East and In the Name of the Father. The London Philharmonic Orchestra's international reputation is matched by a steadfast and unflinching commitment to the communities of its local London boroughs of Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham. The Orchestra reaches thousands through its varied and extensive programme of education work, both community and school-based.

Celebrating Joyce DiDonato ?? On Tuesday night, the American Friends of the London Philharmonic Orchestra was delighted to honour multi-Grammy- and Olivier Award-winning mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato with a Lifetime Achievement in Classical Music Award ?? It was wonderful to have her join us at at our annual US Gala at Carnegie Hall to receive the award, presented by Melanie Hopkins OBE, Acting Consul General at the British Consulate General in New York. Guests were treated to intimate performances by cellist Sterling Elliot, pianist Sophia Zhou, LPO players, and students from LaGuardia High School, with whom the LPO has a long-standing partnership. As a registered charity, the AFLPO Gala 2025 raised nearly $200,000 to support the LPO to continue to foster and celebrate its special relationship with the US. These funds will enable a vital transatlantic sharing of the unique power of music, both on and off the concert platform, through the commissioning of new works from American composers, sharing LPO performances with US audiences, nurturing the next generation of exceptional American musicians, and providing a prestigious platform in the UK on which to showcase and celebrate extraordinary US musicians ???? We would like to thank AFLPO Chair Hannah Young, the AFLPO Trustees, Joyce, all the performers, and our guests who supported the AFLPO’s mission so generously. And to add to the celebrations today, we’re sending a big happy birthday to Joyce! ?? ?? John Sanderson/AnnieWatt.com
