Tonight we share six brand new works for cello and piano performed by Jennifer Langridge and Benjamin Powell that were created through Psappha’s 2020-21 'Composing for Cello & Piano' scheme.
Psappha's 'Composing for…' schemes began back in 2013 and have supported the creation of more than 140 new works to date. The aim of the scheme is to give emerging composers direct access to one of Psappha’s core musicians or a special guest over an extended period of 6 – 8 months. Through a series of one to one workshops the composer and musician get to know each other personally and musically and a new work is created through this collaboration.

SUPPORT OUR WORK
Psappha is a Registered Charity and as a small organisation we have found new ways to continue supporting composers through our schemes, commissions, projects and collaborations despite considerable challenges. The Covid-19 restrictions forced us to change our practice and our core costs have increased due to the additional technology required to deliver projects remotely whilst at the same time our box office income has significantly reduced. Please support our work and help us to maintain our commitment to emerging talent and professional musicians and help us to contribute to a brighter future.
