Love this!
A lil snippet of what's brewing~ I think I'm steadily realising that 7/4 is my favourite time signature at the moment as well as progressive drum n bass🥴

Lovely to be in the same building as this whilst all our young composers are exploring works and techniques of contemporary composers @BirmCons
Such a joy recording @AnnaAppleby’s ‘Electric Aeroplanes’ yesterday for our album, Strata 🫶 Huge thanks to the @VWFndn for enabling us to commission this work. Recording with the incredible @AaronHNahum @CovielloMP #newmusic #saxophonequartet #womeninmusic #classicalmusic

Today we started in groups composing using graphic & text scores for each other to perform. We explored cellular music & music composed using processes. Then our lovely guest musicians did an intro to the flute & horn. Finally students had space to start composing their own ideas

First in-person YCP since early 2020! Students took part in discussions, created some guidelines to follow whilst at YCP, then students and @BirmCons mentors shared a piece as a small group. After the break ex-YCP student Thea (now mentor) led a workshop on graphic & text scores
