The concept of an orchestra basing itself on the seventh floor of a disused multi-story car park in Peckham, South London, is not one that immediately jumps to mind. But it works, really well. I had a great time shooting the Multi-Story Orchestra before their concert last Saturday and the concert itself was superb. The event is one of many, in the car park, organised by Bold Tendencies.

Being a disused car park the ceiling is low and the floors are open on all sides, so on a cold, windy, day, it would have been pretty unpleasant. However, it was one of those warm clear days that can, sometimes, be a little hard to come by in London. I was lucky with the lighting, the 'stage' was lit well with a lot of small spotlights all around. So as the sun dropped the lighting worked really well picking the musicians and their sheet music out really nicely.

The multi-story orchestra are performing twice more this season, Beethoven's 7th Symphony, on the 12th & 13th September. I'd recommend it if you get the chance to get along.
