The Imaginative Conservative: Beauty, Home, and the Concert Hall
The London Symphony Orchestra (LSO) is advocating for a new concert hall, emphasizing the need for a venue that reflects the intimacy and humanity of classical music.

Sir Simon Rattle's leadership is pivotal in this endeavor, as he seeks to elevate the LSO's identity and connection to its rich history.
