When listening to the piece it is probably worth remembering that London then was quite different to London now. It was the centre of Empire, and a busy, dirty, noisy place, but it was also without todays urban sprawl, with the countryside on the doorstep and with transport dominated by horsepower rather than the car. The London Symphony gives us a wonderful glimpse of both sides of the capital of the time.

The Votives Project is led by international award-winning artists Neil Musson and Jono Retallick, and is kindly supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Exeter-based duo Abbe Martin and Hannah Wood dovetail beautifully on their debut album, For All Our Sins, a beguiling acoustic pop collection replete with lyrical sensibility on tracks like the first single, Smokescreen (“Living beyond the darkness others create for us, and growing into something positive”), The Circus (“When everyone wants something from you, who can you trust?”) and Mr Wilson (“The chemistry of a new relationship, unsure of where it is going, but knowing that you want more from it”). Already championed by Chris Evans – who declared himself “blown away” when he heard Sound of the Sirens for the first time – they’re certain to broaden a burgeoning fan base on the back of For All Our Sins. It’s a fan base built up not just over several sublime EP self-releases – but also through their live shows, which combine a natural facility for connecting with their audiences and unforgettable performances predicated on energy, warmth, humour and, above all, real conviction.
