We bring together staff and students from a range of disciplines and specialisms with a shared interest in the creation of new music through composition, improvisation and performance.

The community offers a supportive and dialogic environment in which creative ideas concerning practice and research can be presented, explored and developed collaboratively. Central to this is a series of weekly events – presented simultaneously in-person and online – running through the academic year. This curated programme of seminars, performances and workshops is delivered by a mixture of guest and internal contributors; for more information on upcoming events in the series, please see the CMRC events page and let us know if you would like to be added to our mailing list by getting in touch.
