SLJO is based in Brixton and play over thirty gigs a year all around London and further afield. The Orchestra was set up in 2000 and operates as part of South London Community Music, alongside concert band South London Symphonic Winds and choir London Sings!
You can find SLJO at the London Marathon and up on the bandstands in three Royal Parks – Hyde Park, Regents Park, Greenwich Park – as well as their local favourite Ruskin Park. They love a good party! SLJO regularly plays the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Brighton Fringe Festival, and Wandsworth Arts Fringe. They’ve entertained both beer festivals and neighbourhood fetes. In past years, SLJO have toured Europe, going to Belgium, Germany and Switzerland.
