LMP Classical Club

Fairfield Halls’ resident orchestra, the London Mozart Players, was back at the Concert Hall last week to film a wonderful concert for their online series ‘Classical Club’. A socially-distanced audience of just 50 people were appreciated Mendelssohn’s Italian Symphony and Strauss’s Oboe Concerto in the fine acoustics of the hall, and viewers around the world will be able to tune in when the concert goes live on the LMP website on Thursday 15 October at 8pm.

LMP’s Classical Club is a series of 8 online concerts filmed in iconic locations, launched in September in response to the pandemic to support their musicians and bring music to their audience. The concerts feature an exciting and eclectic variety of repertoire, from Mozart and Beethoven, to Walton and Stravinsky, and plenty more besides, including two concerts especially for children.

Tickets are £12 per concert (£5 for children’s concerts) or you can enjoy the whole series for just £50 if you purchase your 8-concert Season Pass before 31 October (full price £60). You can watch each concert on their go-live date and then on demand up until 1 December. There are already three concerts available to watch. Do support this brilliant initiative which keeps Croydon’s resident orchestra performing, even though most venues are closed.
