Welcome to AFYM – Abertawe Festival for Young Musicians
Class C02

Women Composers

About Women Composers

This class was introduced in 2023 and was met with great enthusiasm. The exam syllabi, conservatoires as well as public broadcasting such as BBC3, are also introducing such music that has been hidden away over past centuries. AFYM continues this year to support tis process of presenting these great works to a modern- day audience. Performers are encouraged to say a little about the composers before they play.

This class is open to any performer and can be played on any instrument. The performance can be solo, duet or ensemble. When entering this class, entrants need to state the approximate grade of the piece being performed and the instrument/s to be played.

Entry Fee: £8.00 Plus £1.38 booking fee
Our ticketing partner, Eventbrite, includes a small booking charge on top of the price of the performance fee.
