RIAM Philharmonia

The RIAM Philharmonia was founded in 2016. It brings together some of Ireland’s finest musicians, joined by a growing body of international students making the Royal Irish Academy of Music their musical home.  

Its wide-ranging repertoire of music has been heard in some of Dublin’s finest historic spaces, including the Pillar Room of the Rotunda and St Bartholomew’s Church, Clyde Road.  Distinguished conductors with which the musicians have worked within its inaugural seasons include Kenneth Montgomery, Gerhard Markson, Andrew Mogrelia, Jonas Alber, Atso Almila and Michel Galante.   

Future performances will see this vibrant and stylish orchestra once again work under the baton of Gerhard Markson, former Principal Conductor of the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra.
