In an exciting new collaboration, RCM singers will give a recital at Wigmore Hall featuring music by alumni Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Joseph Horovitz and Helen Grime.
At the heart of the recital is Coleridge-Taylor's Nourmahal's Song, discovered in the RCM Library in 2022: this will be its first performance outside College walls.
Alongside this landmark performance, these exceptional young musicians will sing Coleridge-Taylor's Six Sorrow Songs and Helen Grime's moving ode to motherhood, Bright Travellers, their poignancy contrasting with two of Horovitz's wittiest numbers.
