A world-leading, global community of gifted musicians
Hear internationally acclaimed soloists and support the next generation of musical talent with the Royal College of Music’s events programme.
Our vibrant Summer Season features a diverse range of concerts and festivals, shining a spotlight on women composers including Hannah Kendall, Nadia Boulanger, Clara Schumann, Jessie Montgomery and more. We’re joined by a host of inspiring visiting artists this season including Angela Gheorghiu, Maxim Vengerov, and Jean-Yves Thibaudet who share their expertise through insightful masterclasses, and acclaimed conductors Martyn Brabbins and Ryan Bancroft.
Why not visit our Museum, too? Explore the lives and legacies of émigré musicians in our special Music, Migration and Mobility exhibition, or attend chamber performances on historical instruments whilst surrounded by priceless musical treasures.
Families and young people can join in by experiencing the thrill of workshops and performances run by the RCM Museum and RCM Sparks, our learning and participation programme.
While you’re here, enjoy some time out in our spacious café and courtyard, and take home a memento of your visit from the RCM Shop.
And remember that you can always watch your favourite performances, masterclasses and behind-the-scenes clips on our YouTube channel, whenever you’d like to.
