2.00pm, Recital Room, Faculty of Music
David Pickard
Currently Director of the BBC Proms, David Pickard has for many years been at the forefront of arts in the UK, having previously headed the Glyndebourne Festival and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. This very special Composers’ Workshop promises a unique insight into what goes into the making of the BBC Proms, once described as ‘the world’s largest and most democratic music festival’.

The Faculty’s series of Composers’ Workshops is open to students in all years of the undergraduate music course as well as Master’s and doctoral students, indeed anyone with an interest in the creation of new music. Because space is limited, please email Richard Causton (rjc94@cam.ac.uk) if you are not a Faculty member and wish to attend.
