International Composer Pyramid

Closed

The purpose of ICP is to establish an innovative programme of exchanges, competitions and courses to foster development in the composition of new music on a crossborder basis. The creation of new music requires specialist skills, such as those already available on either side of the channel. This project sees two different music education systems working in partnership to have long term benefits for music education and culture in both regions and to disseminate good practice across national, regional, cultural and linguistic boundaries. ICP will provide expert teaching and opportunities in composition on both sides of the channel. It will also offer high profile incentives to young composers who are more established and generate increased awareness, understanding and appreciation of contemporary music through workshops in schools and through public performance.
