A timely set of awards (the below courtesy of the Royal Philharmonic Society press
release, slightly annotated), given that this very day (March 7), I travel to Cambridge to
cover a concert by award-winner Jasdeep Singh Degun, to appear both here, and
on Seen & Heard International. Here are the highlights:
• The Royal Philharmonic Society Awards – ‘the biggest night
in UK classical music’ (The Sunday Times) – have been
presented this evening at the Royal Northern College of
Music.
• Staged in Manchester for the first time, the event featured
live music from the city’s musicians and an award for the
city’s major festival ‘Manchester Classical’.
