A snapshot from The RPS Conversation: our popular new industry event for colleagues to make connections and resolutions.

RPS Corporate Membership

There’s strength, solidarity and opportunity to be found in working collaboratively. We welcome you to join our growing network of like-minded organisations and colleagues nationwide who are proud of their association with the Royal Philharmonic Society.

RPS Corporate Membership draws inspiration from the founders of the RPS – a remarkable group of individuals who cared for the prospects and profile of music-making in the UK. They knew the difference they could make by getting together and working as one. Their example shines through everything we do today.

Whether you're a non-professional or professional ensemble, an organisation devoted to music, or work in a different sector entirely, you can be associated with the RPS and make a charitable gesture by supporting the future of classical music in the UK. Given our unique position at the heart of classical music, we can expand your network, ignite new partnerships and help fulfil your own strategic priorities, giving you insights into every corner of the musical ecology. We can further your profile to our extensive social media following and fast-growing Membership of engaged music lovers.

Your Corporate Membership in turn helps the RPS in its charitable work, supporting musicians at critical stages in their careers, raising profile for the achievements of musicians and initiatives through the RPS Awards, and rousing greater national curiosity, discovery and pride in classical music through RPS Membership.

We offer Corporate Membership at three levels as detailed below. Each offers a distinctive association with the RPS, with opportunities to promote your objectives and connect with RPS Members and colleagues across the music profession. Read on to discover how your ensemble or organisation can benefit.

For those organisations seeking to ally themselves with a notable aspect of our charitable work, talk to us about putting your name to the high-profile RPS Awards, or let's develop a creative idea together in the form of a Corporate Partnership or workshop. To discuss all the possibilities, contact Harriet Wybor, our General Manager, or call us on 020 7287 0019.
