Run by the award-winning ORA Singers<\/a>, the programme will see 10 ‘Young Composers’ each receive 10 hours of free one-to-one mentoring from professional composers<\/strong>, who will help them write a brand new choral piece to be performed and recorded by ORA Singers in concert<\/strong>. Halfway through the scheme, Young Composers also get to join ORA Singers for a Workshop<\/strong>, where they’ll be able to hear their ideas and sketches sung by professionals<\/strong>, who will offer specialist tips and advice<\/strong> along with a Guest Composer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme comes to a close with the Final Concert, where the Young Composers have their completed pieces performed by ORA Singers in front of a live audience and a panel of industry experts at the world-famous Three Choirs Festival<\/strong> in Gloucester. Young Composers receive a video recording of the performance to kick-start their portfolios, and are given feedback from the panel. Previous panels have included Stephen Fry, John Rutter, Katie Tearle, Gareth Malone, Susanna Eastburn, Donna McKevitt<\/strong>, and several others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Apprentice route runs alongside the Young Composers’, and will see our Apprentices gain first-class coaching in composition through 8 in-depth, online Workshops, free of charge<\/strong>. Apprentices will fast-track their compositional development, and will also gain invaluable insight into the world of professional composition by hearing from experts in the industry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
