About this Funding:
Grants ranging from £500 to £3,000 are available to charities, not-for-profit organisations, and individuals across the UK for projects that focus on the performance, commissioning, or recording of contemporary and experimental music.
Provided by the Hinrichsen Foundation, this funding supports initiatives that enhance the understanding and appreciation of contemporary music.
Projects that take artistic risks, promote diversity, prioritise sustainability, or are led by composers or artists are especially encouraged. The Foundation also welcomes work that involves collaboration across art forms and disciplines.
Applications that include a degree of matched funding are likely to be viewed more favourably.
The deadline for applications is 10am on 1 September 2026.
Multi-year partnerships are considered in the May funding round.
