Sir James MacMillan, who received an honorary doctorate from the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ in 2011, directs the RCM Symphony Orchestra in a dazzling programme featuring his own music.

New Orleans-born trumpeter and composer Wynton Marsalis wrote his Tuba Concerto in 2021, showcasing the instrument’s untapped agility, with RCM Concerto Competition Winner Archie McVicar taking the starring role in this concert.

The concert culminates in a series of vivid images conjured in sound: Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition.

Enjoy a pre-concert performance of chamber music at 6.15pm, free for ticket holders.
