Rupert Whitehead
Associate Musician
Rupert grew up in the town of Llandeilo in Carmarthenshire, and it was through the Carmarthenshire Music Service that he had many of his early musical opportunities. This is something that he feels truly grateful for and very fortunate to have experienced. Rupert moved to London in 2006 to study at the Royal College of Music, and then the Royal Academy of Music for post graduate studies. After freelancing for six years, Rupert became an Associate Member of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in 2017, becoming a full member of the orchestra in 2022. As well as performing with the orchestra, Rupert enjoys working with RPO Resound, the orchestra’s groundbreaking Community and Education department.
Rupert has been a musician consultant for Moving Performance, performing and supporting many Know the Score® programmes in the UK and Europe working with all staff conferences of fast-tech companies, to the executive board of the world's leading VC company.
