CoDI Buddies 2019/20 composer/music society partnerships

TÅ· Cerdd is delighted to announce the names of the composer/society pairings selected for its CoDI BUDDIES scheme. Part of Ty Cerdd’s composer development initiative, this scheme joins Welsh composers with non-professional music makers from around the country in a series of projects intended to create new works and forge links between creators and local communities.

 

The three partnerships are:

Gareth Churchill & South Wales Gay Men’s Chorus —developing a project which builds towards a genre-crossing, ‘docu-musical’ performance piece. Through exploring elements of spoken, vocalised and theatrically delivered text alongside more traditional instrumental and vocal textures the project will work towards creating a highly personal commentary on contemporary gay life in South Wales.
