The London Philharmonic Orchestra, founded in 1932, has long established a high reputation for its versatility and artistic excellence. These are evident from its performances in the concert hall and opera house, its many awardwinning recordings, its trail-blazing international tours, and its pioneering education work. The London Philharmonic Orchestra presents its main series of concerts at the Royal Festival Hall, and in summer becomes the resident symphony orchestra at Glyndebourne Festival Opera.
In September 2007 Vladimir Jurowski took over as the Orchestra’s Principal Conductor, following in the footsteps of distinguished previous incumbents such as Sir Thomas Beecham, Sir Adrian Boult, Sir John Pritchard, Bernard Haitink, Sir Georg Solti, Klaus Tennstedt and Kurt Masur.
