About

One of the most exciting artists on the contemporary jazz scene, the multi award-winning Zoe Rahman is known for her powerful playing and distinct compositional voice. Her unique musical background, grounded in classical training, coupled with her British/Bengali heritage, gives rise to her imaginative style and exuberant performances. 

This June, she brings her versatile and inventive perspective to the RNCM Big Band. Working side-by-side with our student musicians, she leads an evening of her own music and arrangements. 

‘Her sound is drenched with originality and jazz legitimacy….a world class artist, composer and performer… Zoe shines as one of Britain’s most powerful compositional voices and important contemporary artists.’ Ivors Academy
