Since its formation 80 years ago, the RPO has operated under the directorship of some of the world’s most respected conductors, Rudolf Kempe and Andre Previn among them.
Based in the beautiful surroundings of Chelsea’s Cadogan Hall, the orchestra is no stranger to the recording studio, regularly laying down soundtracks for films and enjoying a long partnership with many of the major commercial record companies...
The RPO’s late-month concert in Coventry features three works: contemporary composer Samy Moussa’s mournful Adgilis Deda; Strauss’ Four Last Songs, written when the composer was 84 years old; and Sibelius’ Second Symphony, perhaps best known for its triumphant closure.
The orchestra is joined for the concert by multi-award-winning South African soprano Masabane Cecilia Rangwanasha (pictured).
Kevin John Edusei, the RPO’s conductor-in-residence for the current season, is the man with the baton.
