We supported the ensemble’s cross art-form programme Blue Touch Paper, 2011-2015 and it’s Jerwood Series of recordings featuring new work by up and coming composers 2006-2009.
Our support goes to a new project that aims to seek out the very best emerging composers from a broad range of styles and backgrounds, to provide them with a world-class producing and performing partner to develop and showcase new work. Early-career composers were commissioned through an open call in spring 2017.
The Writing the Future composers 2017-2019 are Josephine Stephenson, Ed Nesbit and Oliver Leith.
