Royal Holloway Honorary Fellows Ceremony.

On 10^th June, I felt honoured to be invited to the Honorary Fellows Ceremony at Royal Holloway, University of London.

It was a beautiful evening seeing the sun streaming into the golden chapel and listening to heavenly music by the Royal Holloway Choir performing pieces by Gerald Finzi, Jonathan Dove, Charles Wood and César Franck.  After the ceremony, the guests were treated to a performance by Yuting Zhao, a PhD student in the Department of Music, playing the “guzheng”, sometimes known as the Chinese zither or harp, in the splendid Picture Gallery of the University.

Many congratulations to the new Honorary Fellows: former High Sheriff of Surrey Shahid Azeem DL, Ann Ewing, Gerry O’Hagan and Jarmila Yu. Their commitment to Royal Holloway has been significant and -undoubtedly – they will continue to contribute to the academic life of the university for many years to come.  

A very well-deserved honour!
