Supporting the next  generation
of young musicians

Corporate Photographer London

Since the foundation of the Annual Music Competition in 1952, music has always been at the heart of what we do. Our musical offering continues to grow and we now present a year-round programme of concerts at Over-Seas House, as well as at venues around the UK.

The highlights of the musical calendar are the Annual Music Competition, our Composition Award and our season of individual concerts and recitals.
