LSO Percussion Ensemble live in London

Experience LSO Percussion Ensemble live on December 5th

The London Symphony Orchestra Percussion Ensemble will perform at LSO St Luke’s on December 5th, 2026. The ensemble is known for exploring the vast sonic possibilities of percussion instruments, extending beyond traditional orchestral roles to encompass diverse global traditions and contemporary compositions. Their repertoire frequently features works specifically written for the ensemble, showcasing extended techniques and innovative instrumentation – often blurring the lines between melody, harmony, and rhythm. Performances typically demonstrate a wide range of dynamics and textures, highlighting both the power and subtlety achievable with percussion.

LSO St Luke’s is a Grade I listed Hawksmoor church, originally built between 1728 and 1733. It served as a parish church until 1995, falling into disrepair before being acquired by the London Symphony Orchestra in 1995. Following a substantial restoration project completed in 2003, it was transformed into a world-class concert hall and community space. The building's acoustics are highly regarded, lending themselves particularly well to chamber music and recitals.
