SLO is a registered charity dedicated to bringing free, high-quality performances to audiences across London, four times per year.
​
Run by a voluntary committee, we receive no public funding and rely on the generosity of our supporters to thrive. Your support enables us to rehearse, perform, and grow—reaching diverse audiences in accessible venues and championing bold, contemporary repertoire. It also helps us nurture emerging talent and expand our community outreach, ensuring that inclusive music-making continues to flourish throughout the city.
​
For the 2025/26 season, we have a very exciting repertoire which is only possible with help from our supporters:
-
an exciting Diwali concert a the Victoria and Albert Museum in Kennington
-
our much-loved Christmas pop-up concert, where festive passers-by will have the opportunity to conduct the orchestra
-
in Spring 2026, we will be partnering with an inspiring cause to deliver a musical-themed educational concert exploring a critical health condition
-
weekend tour in the Summer
