30/04/2025 RNCM Brand New Orchestra
Brand New Orchestra is where new music takes shape, providing an exciting platform for RNCM composition students to write for a full orchestra, workshop their ideas, and hear their final works performed, often as world premières.
Across three events each academic year, audiences gain a unique insight into the evolution of compositional voices, nurtured by an environment that thrives on innovation and experimentation.
