In response to financial implications of the COVID-19 crisis, Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival is looking to establish immediate paid opportunities for UK-based music creators.
HCMF are offering five artists a commission worth £1,000, with the resulting pieces appearing at a future edition of the HCMF festival.
HCMF write: ‘This open call is accessible to any music creator based in the UK. We are interested in all formats – whether you write notated music, work as a composer-performer, create sound art, or fit into a different category entirely. If you’re making music, you’re eligible.’
The five artists will be chosen by a panel including HCMF artistic director Graham McKenzie, along with composers Laura Bowler and Scott McLaughlin, both of whom have appeared at HCMF as part of their talent development programmes.
