Held on selected Sundays across the year, the RCM Young Double Reed Programme features inspiring classes, ensemble performances, masterclasses and creative collaborations. This an excellent chance to meet like-minded young musicians, form firm friendships and enjoy exploring your instrument and its repertoire, supported by wonderful teachers and players.

You will also gain valuable advice about how to prepare for auditions, develop performance skills and receive peer-to-peer support from other young musicians in a supportive and friendly environment. Each session will be led by oboe and bassoon professors, aided by current RCM students and alumni, overseen by Sarah Burnett and James Turnbull.
