12 October 2022, the exact 150th anniversary of the composer's birth, saw the launch of a new charity founded to honour the legacy of Ralph and Ursula Vaughan Williams.
Over the years RVW funding has been there for me, and countless other composers – a steadfast supporter for the creation of new music. This dedication to investing and supporting projects has been invaluable for so many creatives and has allowed me personally to explore and progress my own craft.
DANIEL KIDANE, composer
His music continues to inspire us. Its incredible breadth of style and outlook seems especially important in our polarised times
CHRISTOPHER GLYNN, Artistic Director, Ryedale Festival
Funding has allowed us to commission many composers at various stages of their careers and bring their music to life, both through live performances and CD recordings.
