He made a major contribution to Composing the Island in 2016, an RT /NCH festival exploring a century of Irish music and in 2019 he conducted RT lyric fm's 20th Birthday Gala celebration.
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.
