  • The Michael Tippett Musical Foundation

    Created: 20/02/2025
    News/Events Category: Funding and Finance


    The foundation has two objectives: 

    1. To award grants to support the development of group music-making especially involving young people, with composing central to the project 
    2. To support the performance or recording of works by Michael Tippett 

    The foundation are focused exclusively on funding performances and recording of music by Michael Tippett, with the aim of generating greater revenue for a wider range of activities in future years. 

    They wish to see composition as central to projects put forward for support. These can include applications from organisations for group projects working with young composers, perhaps at postgraduate or early professional level, offering innovative ways for young composers to develop their talents and experience through engaging with group musical activity.

    Grants are likely to be between £500 and £3000, with the average grant in the region of £2,000. Larger grants may be considered for significant projects. Demand is often greater than the funds available, and only a minority of applications can be supported.  

    Grants awarded will be made towards creative musical activity, not instruments or equipment. Projects might be first-time initiatives or the development of existing projects and must be based in the UK.

    How to apply

    Full application guidance is available on their website: Grants — The Michael Tippett Musical Foundation

    The closing date for applications is Tuesday 30 September 2025.
