For the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, music-making is about hitting heights and touching hearts. Our new season sets out to do just that: discovering new worlds, revisiting favourites, and sharing it all with some of the most exciting conductors and soloists working today. Works like Sibelius’ Violin Concerto, Dvořák’s ‘New World’ Symphony, Brahms’ German Requiem and Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto are all enduring classics for a reason. With guest artists as inspirational as our Artist-In-Residence Zlatomir Fung, violinist Francesca Dego, pianist Martin James Bartlett and conductors Domingo Hindoyan and Nil Venditti, they’ll sparkle like new.

We’re also eager to share discoveries and rediscoveries with you, including music by composers like Louise Farrenc, Doreen Carwithen and Ida Moberg: when you hear their music, you’ll wonder why you haven’t heard it sooner.

Then there are the old friends we can’t wait to welcome back: Principal Guest Conductor Alexander Shelley and violinist Fumiaki Miura to name just two. In the welcoming atmosphere of Cadogan Hall, their artistry will feel close enough to touch. Whoever’s performing, and whatever we play, one thing will remain constant: the commitment, skill and sheer passion for music of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra itself.
