RCM Chorus The RCM Chorus has been a leading ensemble in the College for many years. The ensemble is the largest at the RCM with around 150 musicians performing together. Following preparation with some of the leading choral trainers, the chorus performs with the RCM Symphony Orchestra to sell-out audiences. The size of the ensemble has enabled the choir to undertake a variety of large-scale repertoire with some of the world’s most celebrated conductors. These have included David Hill for Britten’s Spring Symphony in 2013 and Michael Rosewell for Puccini’s Messa a quattro (Messa di Gloria) in Autumn 2015. Founded in 1882, the RCM moved to its present site on Prince Consort Road in 1894. Illustrious alumni include Benjamin Britten, Ralph Vaughan Williams, Gustav Holst, Dame Joan Sutherland, Sir Thomas Allen, Sir Colin Davis, John Wilson, Alina Ibragimova, Gerald Finley and Sarah Connolly. In addition to its 750 full time students, the College engages dynamically with a wider and more diverse community of children and adults through a dedicated range of creative activities delivered by RCM Sparks’ education and participation projects, RCM Junior Department programme and the Creative Careers Centre. A further development is the growing schedule of live-streamed concerts and masterclasses which can be viewed on www.rcm.ac.uk. The RCM would like to thank the rehearsal pianist Adrianna Stoiber.
