RNCM Engagements with professional orchestras

In addition to conducting student instrumental and vocal performances, the most valuable gift a student can receive is the opportunity to lead exceptionally experienced players within professional orchestras. This is why our partnerships with the BBC Philharmonic, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, Hallé , Manchester Camerata, Psappha and Foden’s Brass Band are an integral part of our offer.

Postgraduates and Junior Fellows work as assistant conductors with these orchestras throughout the year, and masters students currently take their final examinations in concert with the BBC Philharmonic.
