Soliloquies and Dialogues

As part of our new series, BCMG at Home, we are excited to announce Soliloquies and Dialogues.

Using these unprecedented times as a stimulus for creativity, we are commissioning a series of new pieces from composers around the globe whose countries have been significantly impacted by COVID-19. 

Composers have been asked to create a piece for a solo artist and will work with that musician over digital platforms to rehearse, refine, and record their music.

Donghoon Shin (representing England and South Korea) and Celeste Oram (representing the USA) have already started composing, and conversations with several other composers are in progress. They are both good friends of BCMG, as Donghoon was our Apprentice Composer in Residence in 2018-19 and Celeste's Work and The Work a key part of our "Wilde Lieder: Marx Music" project in 2018.
