From the Archive: Welcoming the World

Today, a special episode from the LPO Offstage archive… 

YolanDa Brown finds out what it’s like for some of the LPO players who have moved to the UK to live and work in London. Yang moved to London from China, Nynke from the Netherlands and Hugh from Australia, so how do their diverse cultural backgrounds coalesce in the UK? 

They discuss issues relating to family and friends in far off countries, different approaches to programming and orchestral auditions, and it wouldn’t be possible to make this episode without talking about Brexit*…

Produced by Tandem Productions for the London Philharmonic Orchestra. 

*This episode was recorded in April 2021, before the announcement about musicians taking instruments from the UK into the EU
