London Symphony Orchestra Concert Tickets
Come to show by the oldest symphony in London with London Symphony Orchestra tickets. The London Symphony Orchestra, or LSO, was established in 1904 by musicians who had resigned from Henry Wood’s Queen’s Hall Orchestra due to a new rule requiring the players to perform exclusively with that orchestra. The LSO was founded as a cooperative, with all performers getting a share of the profits at the end of the season.
The LSO’s prestige was upstaged by newer orchestras during the 1930s, with performers and performances instead going to the BBC Symphony Orchestra and the London Philharmonic Orchestra. To achieve parity, the LSO abandoned the profit-sharing model after World War II to make the LSO eligible for government subsidies. In the 1950s, there was a schism in the orchestra as some older members wanted to focus on film work rather than symphony concerts, culminating in the exit of some senior members.

The London Symphony Orchestra Chorus was created in 1966 to perform alongside the LSO in choral pieces. When the LSO was founded, it utilized both amateur and professional singers. It has since switched to having only amateur singers in its ranks.
The LSO’s home concert hall is the Barbican Centre. It has reported itself as the most recorded orchestra, dating back to its first gramophone recordings in 1912.
