THE LONDON CHORAL SINFONIA 

The LCS operates a season of at least four concerts per year in London, collaborating with emerging new composers and encouraging the appreciation of many of classical music's choral and orchestral repertoires. The ensemble is made up of professional musicians delivering the highest levels of classical music making.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • There are only 4 trustees

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Established: 9 years
