Perhaps one of the nicest things about the RCM's International Women's Day
celebrations this year is that the concerts that you're going to hear were
curated by our own students and this is a fabulous thing for them to be able to do –
to choose, to prepare, independently, repertoire that they care for, and they
are the musicians of the future so it is a great thing for them to be able to
showcase their own tastes and preferences in this way.
On International Women's Day this year I am delighted to say that I am going to be at
the Royal College of Music all day, supporting the wide range of events that we are holding,
from interviews to the concerts, and I think it's going to be really stimulating and eye-opening.
We look forward so much to welcoming a huge
audience to the RCM on International Women's Day.
