The London Mozart Players (LMP) stand as a paragon of classical excellence, having distinguished themselves as the UK's longest-established chamber orchestra since their inception in 1949. The ensemble, founded by Harry Blech with the visionary aim of performing works by Mozart and his contemporaries, quickly earned a reputation for its impeccable execution and zestful interpretations, qualities that remain at the heart of LMP's identity. Over the decades, the orchestra has expanded its repertoire beyond the classical era, embracing works from a wide spectrum of composers, as evidenced by their diverse recent releases, which include pieces by Jones, Clive Osgood, Fanny Hensel, Felix Mendelssohn, and Romberg, among others.

The London Mozart Players' recent discography highlights their versatility and commitment to exploring both cherished classics and lesser-known gems of the chamber music repertoire. From the nuanced beauty of Mozart's compositions to the rich, emotional depth of Parry's scenes from Shelley's "Prometheus Unbound" and the contemporary resonance of Jenkins' "The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace," the LMP showcases an unparalleled breadth of musical mastery. Their dedication to excellence has not only made them a cherished institution in the UK but also a highly respected ensemble on the international stage. The LMP's commitment to education and community engagement, coupled with their innovative approach to programming and performance, continues to endear them to audiences of all ages and backgrounds.
