UYMP is very excited to announce the launch of a new blog series entitled 'Caesura'. Over the next few weeks we will begin to share reflections written by our composers on their experiences over the last year, including the challenges they have faced and the projects they have undertaken.  Watch this space for the first blog, to be published soon!

In exciting news, Hilda Paredes is one of sixteen composers selected by Wigmore Hall, as part of their Lockdown Commissions Scheme. This is the largest ever one-off commissioning scheme in the history of the hall, completing its 120th anniversary celebrations.

We are absolutely delighted that Sadie’s song for tenor and piano, Easter Zunday has been featured in Jane Manning’s fabulous volume Vocal Repertoire for the 21st Century (Works written from 2000 onwards).

The work was commissioned in 2008 for NMC Recording’s 20th Anniversary and recorded by Benjamin Hulett and Andrew Ball for the NMC Songbook.
