Charlotte Corderoy
Conductor
"Her control was immaculate, her grasp of the music’s elaborate ebb and flow apparently flawless. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra played for her like angels" Stephen Walsh, The Arts Desk, July 2023
Recently shortlisted for the 'Rising Star Award' at the 2024 International Opera Awards, Charlotte Corderoy is Assistant Conductor to the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO).
