OPUS2018 is Britten Sinfonia’s annual competition for unpublished composers of any age and background who are resident in the UK, with the chance to receive a professional commission and tour as part of Britten Sinfonia’s award winning At Lunch series.
This year composers are being challenged with the task of writing a folk inspired classical piece, and the shortlisted composers will have the opportunity to work with Sir James MacMillan, Scottish folk singer Hannah Rarity, and a piano quintet from Britten Sinfonia. The winner will receive a commission fee, a three date tour of their piece in London, Cambridge and Norwich, and a professional recording.
