LSO Family Concerts are a fun, informative way for families to experience live music together and learn more about the instruments of the orchestra. Each concert is based on a theme, with free workshops before the performance, and the opportunity for everyone to get involved by playing or singing along with the audience participation piece during the concert.

London Symphony Orchestra: Family Concert

unEarth is a large-scale oratorio about the climate crisis. Written in three movements, the work is realised with spatial staging and scenic design projected on a large circular screen. It combines ancient stories, languages from around the world, the poetry of Emily Dickinson, climate science and words of protest to create a moving, and urgent plea to engage the listener in the climate emergency.
