Agile, flexible and never afraid of controversial innovations (such
as abandoning traditional 'black tie' evening dress for its players
or giving amplified concerts with creative lighting at the
Hammersmith Apollo), the LCO has surfed the waves of history. It
has travelled from the early days of broadcasting - which other
orchestras shunned, fearing it spelt the end of 'live' music -
through the difficult days of the Second World War, when London's
largest concert hall was bombed, and the thrill of being invited to
play at the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in 2011,
to a triumphant return and reinvention after the Covid-19 pandemic
when its comeback programmes included Concerto for Turntables by
the composer Sergei Prokofiev's grandson Gabriel Prokofiev,
featuring DJ Mr Switch. Author and music critic Jessica Duchen
traces the LCO's history from the beginning under its founding
conductor, the entrepreneurial Anthony Bernard from London's East
End, whose contacts included Britain's first female MP, the
American Nancy Astor (who kindly lent her house for the orchestra's
first concert) and leading composers like Edward Elgar and Ralph
Vaughan Williams, up to its current Artistic Director, Christopher
Warren-Green, who ensures the LCO continues to delight its devoted
audiences at home and abroad with an eclectic and diverse programme
of music. Over the years it has performed dozens of world or UK
premieres by composers including Stravinsky, Falla, Delius and even
Mozart. This engaging book teems with entertaining stories: the
composer who relished riding naked on a motor bike in the
Gloucestershire countryside, the oboe player who taught her
daughter's boyfriend, Paul McCartney, to play the recorder for a
much-loved Beatles song, and the times the LCO travelled the length
and breadth of the US in a country & western tour bus straight
out of Nashville. It adds up to a fascinating celebration of over
100 years of classical music, as well as giving unique insider
glimpses into this vibrant and much loved orchestra.
