The joy that music brings is something everyone should have access to.
It is my mission to shatter the class ceiling, making sure that all young people can experience that joy and gain the vital skills it brings too.
It was through the ‘backdoor’ of being a composer at a conservatoire that I really experienced classical music. Even that is becoming closed off to the working classes.
Today, DCMS and Government released the creative industries sector vision. It includes expanding funding for the Music Export Growth Scheme by £3.2m and the Supporting Grassroots Music Venues Fund by £5m over 2yrs
This is much needed new funding for music
