BCMG Project Reports and Other Resources

Listen, Imagine, Compose investigated the pedagogies of composing in secondary schools and was a partnership project between Sound and Music & Birmingham Contemporary Music Group, with Birmingham City University as the lead academic partner. Funded by the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. 

At BCMG we strive to be as inclusive and accessible as we can. In this welcome pack, you will find some useful information about what to expect on one of our workshop day, who you will meet and how to access the building and workshop spaces.

Imagine Compose was a two year partnership project with Birmingham Music Service funded by Youth Music that aimed to encourage and nurture beginner instrumentalists to compose and improvise from the beginning of their musical lives. Written by Professor Martin Fautley, Dr Victoria Kinsella and Kirsty Devaney.

This resource is designed to introduce young people to careers in The Arts. BCMG have created a series of short careers videos which demonstrate the range of jobs behind the scenes of a music ensemble.
