Visit the Royal College of Music for a vibrant programme featuring new works composed by RCM Junior Department composers for RCMJD ensembles.

Hear a programme of vibrant and exciting new works for tenor, oboe and piano, written by RCM Junior Department composers for pianist Irena Radić (RCM Constant & Kit Lambert Junior Fellow), tenor Rory Carver (RCM Alumni, opera singer and recitalist) and Katherine Bryer (Sub-Principal Oboe with the Scottish Chamber Orchestra).

This project also celebrates the centenary of composer Kenneth V Jones (1924-2020), who studied and taught composition at the Royal College of Music.
