As summer starts and restrictions go, now’s the time to come together. A fantastic Brixton Chamber Orchestra (BCO) show is a unique way to unite a community that’s been divided too long by social distancing. Thanks to the council and other kind funders, they’ll be performing on estates across Lambeth this summer.
BCO play upbeat music to new audiences in unexpected venues. They blend Grime, Gospel, Rock, Folk, Jazz & R’n’B with classical, film and show tunes. BCO are Lambeth's community orchestra: local talent showing the creative energy and cultural diversity of our borough.
From Friday 23 July to Sunday 1 August, BCO will be taking their musical celebration to the community. There’ll be 12 family friendly, live performances at outdoor venues on estates and in parks across the borough. Look out for posters and follow them on Instagram @brixchamber, Twitter @BrixChamber or Facebook.
