We had the pleasure of welcoming Professor Andy Stott, Head of Popular Music at RNCM - Royal Northern College of Music, to introduce our students to RNCM and their brilliant music courses. Andy told us about the unique flexibility they offer at the Conservatoire, and even gave precious feedback to some of our students who got on stage and performed for him.

She’s Got Brass: We had loads of fun with Anna and Hannah from She’s Got Brass! They joined us for Career Development Week to tell us about their unique all-female brass ensemble, and their exciting experiences playing massive festival stages, being DIY artists, and everything in between. They also helped us reflect on the power of perseverance and what it takes to take up space in a male-dominated industry.
