Royal College of Music
Trinity Orchestra is proud of its association with the Royal College of Music (RCM), initiated by former Music Director Michael Murray.
The collaboration provides a platform for some of the world’s finest young musical talent to perform with the orchestra every year, and the opportunity for talented young composers from the RCM to have their works premiered by the orchestra.
Professor Colin Lawson, Director of the RCM, says: “Trinity Orchestra makes a unique contribution to the cultural life of Harrow, presenting a variety of programmes at a high artistic level. The Orchestra makes a feature of offering solo opportunities to students – and the Royal College of Music is especially proud of our close association.”
As part of our association with the RCM, Trinity Orchestra has recently performed with top RCM musicians including pianists Nikola Avramovic, Dinara Klinton and Dominic Doutney, violinist Soh-Yon Kim and cellist and BBC Young Musician 2012 Laura van der Heijden.
We’re delighted to welcome RCM pianist Martin James Bartlett – 2014 winner of the BBC Young Music competition – to perform Mozart with Trinity Orchestra on 21 March 2020.
