The RNCM Student Programming Team is a new group made up of students from across all years and courses, who:
- spend the year learning about artistic programming in a combined venue/conservatoire
- represent the student body and input the student voice into programme planning
- actively take part in programming projects
We are looking for students who:
- are interested in artistic programming and more generally the ‘behind-the-scenes’ activity of the College
- are open-minded, enjoy attending concerts, and have a broad enthusiasm for music of different genres
- may wish to pursue programming/arts administration/events management as a future career path
We are actively seeking between 4 and 6 students from different courses (pop/classical) and across undergraduate/postgraduate.
We will organise sessions/meetings around the team’s availability, and will generally have a flexible and organic approach as to how the activity of the team develops over the course of the year. We expect this will amount to approximately 30 hours in total.
Being a member of the team is entirely extra-curricular and does not count for any credits towards your degree, but we would expect students to commit to being a member of the team for the entirety of the academic year.
Here are a few final incentives in case you’re still not sure…
- a limited number of free tickets to concerts
- the opportunity to make a difference to programming at the RNCM
- a boost to your CV and the potential to request references into the future
- learn from and be part of a welcoming, friendly, experienced team
If you are interested in being a member of the RNCM Student Programming Team, please e-mail Matt Whitham matt.whitham@rncm.ac.uk by Monday 1 October at 12pm with:
- your name
- your year
- your course and principal study (instrument/voice/composer)
- and no more than 300 words about why you would like to put yourself forward to be a member of the team
Depending on the number of applications we receive, we will hold interviews in early October.
