More about Classical Next

While at Classical Next the composers are matched with a professional mentor, who advises the Composers on how to get the most out of their time at the conference.

Chosen Fellows have the opportunity to meet delegates from the conference including classical music labels, publishers, festivals and representatives from ensembles. This conference provides an invaluable environment to network with the international classical community, and fellows are also able to attend panel discussions and showcases.
