The programme offers anyone looking to pursue a career in composition the opportunity to work with some of the composers and ensembles taking part in the 2017 festival and tap into a rich resource of expertise. Participants will be offered: -Direct access to a range of composers -The opportunity to write for a leading professional ensemble -A performance and recording of their work -Free access to Vale of Glamorgan Festival concerts and events -Excellent networking opportunities The programme is divided into two modules and applicants can choose to take part in one or both. Module 1 running from Friday 19 – Monday 22 May 2017 and featuring Grand Band, a six piano “supergroup” based in New York City Module 2 running from Tuesday 23 – Friday 26 May 2017 and featuring The Marsyas Trio, comprising flute, cello and piano Over each four day module, participants will take part in a series of seminars, workshops and tutorials led by a team of composers including Graham Fitkin, Rob Fokkens, John Metcalf, Steph Power, Guto Puw, Hilary Tann and Huw Watkins.
