Welcome
to London Musical Arts.
We
are a versatile performing organisation featuring orchestras,
ensembles and a choir.
Many
of our early music programmes are performed on original instruments
and feature short illustrative talks by Music Director, John
Landor.
History
Since
1992 we have been based at the historic church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields
in London's Trafalgar Square, where we present some 20 concerts
each year.
Formed
by John Landor in 1985, we have played at many London venues
including the Queen Elizabeth Hall and St. John's Smith Square,
performed at the St. James's Festival and Greenwich Festival
and toured Italy. We have also developed music education programmes
and presented many talented young soloists to the public.
