phone +44 (0)20 7193 9787About CoMA
CoMA
was set up in 1993 to encourage and provide opportunities for amateur musicians
of all abilities to take part in contemporary music making. As part of
this commitment, CoMA commissions works from leading UK and international
composers, works which are artistically challenging yet suited to the technical
abilities of amateur ensembes.
CoMA is currently establishing ensembles throught the UK to perform these commissioned works. They also offer opportunities for tuition in contemporary and extended techniques and improvisation, as well as providing a service to local composers wishing to try out new ideas and hear their works in progress.
CoMA provides opportunities to participate in all aspects of music making
- link with both amateurs and professionals to create unique and historic events and projects
- compose radical repertoire technically accessible to musicians of all abilities
- perform exciting new works
