The London Mozart Players has announced Jonathan Bloxham as its Conductor in Residence and Artistic Advisor.

Bloxham will be working closely with the artistic team to develop the vision for the years ahead, as well as conducting key LMP concerts including those at Fairfield Halls, where our orchestra is Resident.

In a statement, the conductor said, “It’s an honor to be joining LMP’s musical family at this exciting time in their long and distinguished history. We’ve already had many exhilarating moments on stage and I’m really looking forward to working more closely with all the orchestra to build vivid and diverse programs together.”

LMP’s Chief Executive, Flynn Le Brocq added, “It’s wonderful that we’re able to formalize our close relationship with Jonathan, especially during the 2023/24 year when Croydon is London’s Borough of Culture. This is a very exciting time for the orchestra and I am confident that Jonathan’s expertise and vision will help us to unlock our full artistic potential.”
