Gavin's recordings on the NMC and RT lyric fm labels have earned critical acclaim, including that of Gramophone magazine and his concerts have been broadcast by the BBC, RT , the European Broadcasting Union, Shanghai East Radio, and radio stations in North America and Australia.
Gavin Maloney said: I'm very pleased to assume the position of Associate Principal Conductor of the RT Concert Orchestra. I have for some time enjoyed a close association with these wonderful musicians. This is an exciting moment to take on this role, and I relish the prospect of working with orchestra and management at a time of great change and opportunity in the world of orchestral music. I look forward to connecting with audiences new and old in the coming years, and experiencing the magic of music together.
