Junior Fellowship in Conducting

Each year, the RNCM selects a Junior Fellow in Conducting. This much sought-after Fellowship is tenable for two years and provides an opportunity for a young conductor, about to enter the profession, to gain widespread experience with the full range of the RNCM’s ensembles. The aims for this two-year Fellowship are:

To provide the highest level of training and support for young conductors who have graduated and are on the
cusp of entering the profession
To provide high quality conducting for a wide range of activities that take place in the College

The Fellowship culminates in the second year with a full RNCM Symphony Orchestra concert, programmed, prepared and conducted by the Junior Fellow. During the 2-year programme, Junior Fellows will also have the opportunity (subject to agreement) for engagements with the BBC Philharmonic, Liverpool Philharmonic and Manchester Camerata orchestras.
