Tonight’s performance by the RLPO’s contemporary music ensemble includes pieces by Colin Matthews, Richard Whalley and RNCM alumna Ailís ní Ríain, followed by a semi-staged version of Adam Gorb’s new opera Anya 17.

Anya 17 is the first of its kind - an opera raising awareness of sex trafficking in the UK. Latest figures reveal that up to 800,000 young women and children are trafficked into EU countries every year. Following the success of their oratorio Eternal Voices, Head of Composition at the RNCM Adam Gorb once again collaborates with librettist Ben Kaye to present this challenging and highly relevant work.
