Whether you're there already, or at the very beginning of working out how to make it happen, Composers & New Music will offer you some key insights into an incredibly varied and vibrant industry.

The ways people create music are so diverse, in fact, that by necessity we have had to concentrate on just part of the spectrum; 'contemporary classical', for want of a better term, is a vast enough topic on its own.

We take a look at pioneering new music record label NMC; pick the experts brains on the commissioning process; discover what the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors (BASCA) has to offer; feature a guide for the aspiring composition student; and ask why competitions tend to exclude the over-40s.

We have also included a useful calendar of competition closing dates and 15 pages listing hundreds of composers with their contact details.

Don’t forget, since Composers & New Music is stitched in to the 17 July issue of Classical Music magazine, you will have the benefit of the regular features, plus a five article focus on Music & Technology.
