Brass: Stories

On Saturday 25th February 2023 Sir Bryn Terfel CBE, one of the world’s greatest singers, announced a new foundation with the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama.

Highlighting the importance of music and its positive impact on our wellbeing, Director of Music Tim Rhys-Evans wrote for Music Teacher magazine about his personal relationship between music and mental health.

Congratulations to flautist Isabelle Harris on winning this year’s Sir Ian Stoutzker Prize.

It’s Mental Health Awareness Week and we’ve teamed up with Student Services Manager, Kate Williams, to give you some key tips, advice and resources about how to take care of your own mental well-being.

At RWCMD we cherish the value of music-making for our wellbeing and cultural health.

Catching up after a busy summer, we spoke to four members of the Flying Bedroom Theatre Company about touring, trust, collaboration and the future.

Congratulations to Elena Zamudio, the winner of this year’s prestigious Sir Ian Stoutzker prize.

We’re delighted to welcome Tim Rhys-Evans, MBE to the College this term as our new Director of Music.

The College handed the reigns to its brass department for a weekend packed with performances, workshops and bratwurst!

The College’s Brass department hit the road for the first time last term with On the Move, helping young people from all backgrounds across South Wales to access the performing arts.
