Psappha’s innovative Composing For scheme invites some of the country’s best emerging composers to create brand new solo and duo works especially for us. Since launching in 2014, the scheme has seen the creation of around 90 new works – with many more to come this season.
During the course of 2019–20, we invited 6 composers – Clare Elton, Tom Green, Ben Gaunt, Patrick Ellis, William Marshall and Sylvia Lim – to write new pieces for pianist Benjamin Powell. Ben has worked closely with each composer during the creation of their pieces, which will be filmed and recorded today. We’ll share the finished works through YouTube Premiere soon – be sure to sign up to our Enewsletter to keep up to date with our activities.
Please note that this is not a public event.
