EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from June 1980, we witness a heartwarming scene of resilience and unity. Members of the BBC Concert Orchestra are seen performing for a group of eager members of the public who were unfortunately unable to attend their scheduled performance at the prestigious Royal Festival Hall. The reason behind this unfortunate circumstance was an ongoing industrial action by the orchestra. Undeterred by the strike, both musicians and concert-goers gather outside next to the serene river, creating an impromptu stage that exudes a sense of camaraderie and shared passion for music. As evening sets in, melodies fill the air as classical symphonies reverberate through open space. The image captures not only the joyous expressions on the faces of those fortunate enough to witness this unique outdoor concert but also showcases how music has an incredible power to bring people together even in times of adversity. It serves as a testament to human resilience and our unwavering love for artistic expression. This photograph is a nostalgic glimpse into a moment when individuals transcended barriers imposed by labor disputes and found solace in harmonious melodies. It reminds us that despite challenges faced by orchestras or any industry, art remains steadfast in its ability to uplift spirits and foster connections between performers and audiences alike.
