The New London Orchestra (NLO) is an English London-based orchestra specialising in rarely heard late 19th and 20th century music.
The original New London Orchestra was formed in 1941 by conductor Alec Sherman and was used by Dame Myra Hess to play at her historic series of wartime National Gallery concerts.[1] The New London Orchestra was revived in 1988 as a body of players regularly assembled by Ronald Corp to accompany concerts given by Highgate Choral Society. The orchestra is independent of public funding, being reliant on private sponsorship and donations.
