Description

A behind-the-scenes glimpse into rehearsals

We are very excited to continue our series of open rehearsals in the 2025–26 season. Offering our supporters a unique glimpse into the RPO's creative process, you will be given behind-the-scenes insights into the artistic partnership between the Orchestra and its guest conductors and soloists as they prepare for a concert. Ahead of each rehearsal, we will be hosting a brief Q&A with RPO musicians who will shed light on the rehearsal process and the music covered throughout the afternoon.

Open rehearsals are open to members of the RPO Patrons, RPO Chair Patrons, RPO Benefactors, and the 1946 Club.
