Conductor

In this special concert the RCMJD Symphony Orchestra evokes the power of the sea in Doreen Carwithen’s dramatic overture Bishop Rock.

Composed in 1952, the work portrays both the stormy and calm environments of the Bishop Rock lighthouse located a few miles off the Isles of Scilly. The concert will also feature a performance by the winner of the 2024 Peter Morrison Concerto Competition.
