AR Rahman x Rushil Ranjan

Friday 24 - Saturday 25 April 2026

Step into a historic evening as two musical innovators come together to break new ground. Making his momentous and long-awaited Hall debut, the legendary AR Rahman will be in collaboration with pioneering composer and Royal Albert Hall Associate Artist Rushil Ranjan.

Together, they will work to reframe the shared divinity between Eastern and Western classical art forms and will co-compose a brand-new commission, Rangreza रंगरेज़ा, written for fellow Royal Albert Hall Associate Artist Abi Sampa, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and London Voices.

Across the night, audiences will also hear Rahman’s most iconic and classic works from Roja and Guru to 127 Hours and Rockstar. Audiences can look forward to the maestro himself taking to the stage, accompanied by Ranjan’s signature orchestral arrangements and stagecraft. Conducted by Melvin Tay and featuring acclaimed soloists Sarthak Kalyani and Janan Sathiendran this promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime orchestral experience.
