“With much recent reportage about funding cuts to the arts, what a story we have to
share about classical musicians’ creativity, generosity and resilience. The RPS
Awards shortlists represent thousands of musicians who devote their lives to
uplifting, inspiring and uniting communities nationwide. We’re newly presenting the
RPS Awards at the same time of year as the BAFTAs and BRITs, as classical
musicians deserve as much recognition as pop acts and movie stars. Tickets have
never been cheaper, from only £10, so we warmly invite music-lovers to come and
be part of the festivities and help us make some noise,” Royal Philharmonic Society
Awards Chief Executive James Murphy said in an official press statement.
The winners will be announced at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall on March 1, 2023.
