| Abstract | This book celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Drawing on the Orchestra's archives, and on the private collections of past and present players, it is a vivid evocation of the rise and often turbulent progress of one of Britain s great cultural institutions. The LPO was founded by Sir Thomas Beecham in 1932, and throughout its history has been richly documented in pictures. Rare photographs from the 1930s show the elegant world of Beecham's patronage in an Edwardian afterglow, a world which was shattered by the Second World War. |
