New short films take you inside an orchestra

Southbank Sinfonia have embraced restrictions and used social distancing as an artistic device to create an experimental and cinematic concert experience.

Three cinematic short films shot in the visually-stunning surroundings of Hackney's Round Chapel immerse the viewer within the orchestra, as if wandering through a live performance.

To be released weekly across December 2020 on Southbank Sinfonia’s Youtube channel, the three sessions will explore a programme of works by contemporary women and Black composers in intimate, cinematic definition, and with new narrative intensity.
