RNCM Artist Agency
Topic outline
-
Public performances are a key part of a musician's development. The RNCM co-ordinates a large number of professional performance engagements each year, largely for soloists and ensembles/bands. The Artist Agency liaises with senior academic staff in order to match the most suitable performers to a wide range of external professional performance engagements. We have long-standing links with numerous music clubs, choral societies, orchestras and event organisers both in the North West and further afield and co-ordinates regular recitals in Manchester's St Ann's and Emmanuel Churches and the Whitworth Art Gallery as part of the RNCM On the Road concert series.
