‘I am thrilled to be joining the Royal College of Music and very much look forward to working with the RCM’s talented students,' said Vengerov. 'Encouraging new generations of musicians is one my greatest passions and I am very pleased to be able to help shape the future careers of violinists at one of the world’s leading music conservatoires.’
