The Michael Tippett Musical Foundation
Created: 20/02/2025The foundation has two objectives:
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.
