Our gift to you: RNCM in the City

RNCM in the City is our seven-month gift to Manchester of 40 free performances at 40 venues throughout the city.

Part of our 40th anniversary celebrations, it’s a unique series that takes our music out into the community, reaching new audiences and enabling the College’s students and supporters to experience RNCM in a variety of different settings.

From background music at familiar venues to full-length evening recitals at unusual haunts around the city, the performances feature current students, including members of Junior RNCM, from all schools of study – as well as a variety of alumni.

We kicked off RNCM in the City last year with some fantastic performances at Manchester Town Hall, the Manchester Christmas Markets, Surestart Longsight, Gorton Monastery and The Gaskell’s House.

Here are a few highlights of what’s coming up to whet your appetite… see you soon, Manchester!
