'A most imaginative and individual artist’ (Gramophone), Sharon Kam leads an enlightening masterclass with RCM clarinettists.

Since Sharon’s orchestral debut with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra under Zubin Mehta at the age of 16 and later winning the ARD International Competition at the age of 21, she has performed with renowned orchestras around the world, including the Leipzig Gewandhaus orchestra under Kurt Mazur, Tokyo, Berlin and Czech Philharmonics and Chicago Symphony. Her various recordings prove her being equally at home with the classical repertoire as with contemporary music and jazz. 

Enjoy a Side by Side recital with Sharon Kam and RCM musicians on Friday 20 November.
