Programme for young composers & Annual Festival 2027
We are delighted to introduce our performer-in-residence for 2027:
Mark Eden, classical guitarist.
14-17 year old aspiring composers can apply to our supportive scheme from late October. Successful applicants will be commissioned in early January to write for solo classical guitar, leading to premieres at our
Annual Festival, 25th April '27 in Winchester.
Join us to sing, play and celebrate comtemporary music!
Take a look back at our highly-acclaimed
Annual Festivals.
'It was an amazing day. I was blown away by the talent of the young composers, and also mesmerised by the skill of the professional ...quartet who brought their compositions to life. The format worked really well with the onstage live interviews giving the human touch (how often do we get that in a concert?) and loved hearing their pieces even more the second time!'
