Ever wondered what it’s like to be a conductor? Join us for the day as Royal College of Music students, alumni, professors and special guests come together for the College’s third Festival
of Conducting!

Highlights this year include a special focus on conducting a range of genres; insights into how
conductors work with composers in a showcase of new pieces for percussion; and an opportunity to hear (and join) a choral music session.

Enjoy your lunch in the RCM café – The Carolean – whilst RCM musicians conduct a performance of Mozart’s Eine kleine Nachtmusik, and don’t miss your chance to take to the podium yourself in a special session with RCM Head of Conducting, Toby Purser.

Families can head to the RCM Museum’s Weston Discovery Centre for a fun baton-crafting activity! (Free, no booking required)
