Members of the public were surprised with “much-missed” classical music when Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO) gave an outdoor performance in Wembley Park. “The collaboration has enabled us to treat our community and visitors to beautiful and much-missed live orchestral music,” Wembley Park’s cultural director Josh McNorton said. He added that the performance supported the musicians “after a long period during which they have been unable to perform to the public”. With further appearances planned on Sunday, it is expected that 38 musicians from the orchestra in total will play in the area. “We’re thrilled that the RPO chose Wembley Park as the location to make its first public appearance since lockdown,” Mr McNorton said.
