Tŷ Cerdd – CoDI Composer Pathways
Tŷ Cerdd’s CoDI Composer Pathways is a multi-faceted programme for Welsh and Wales-based music-creators which was launched in 2018 with the aim of creating a community of composers and providing them with developmental opportunities. As the project has developed we’ve worked to open the lens and support an increasingly broad range of artists, cross-genre and from a wide variety of cultural and creative backgrounds.
CoDI 23/24 takes Tŷ Cerdd’s artist-development initiative to a new stage, with artist-led pathways nurturing creativity through a lens of diversity & access:- PENGUIN PEBBLING/PEBLO PENGWIN pathway for neuro-divergent artists in collaboration with Aubergine Café & duo Ardal Bicnic- COMPOSERS’ STUDIO/STIWDIO CYFANSODDWYR writing for 12-piece conducted ensemble, in collaboration with UPROAR- BWM! developing climate-responsive, outdoor work; with OCM & Articulture- BWTHYN SONIG enabling learning-disabled artists to express original music; partnership with CGWM, Touch Trust, DAC and Sonic Bothy- OFF-GRID/DAN-DDAEAR: extending and developing this nationwide network of sound-artists and music-creators working in unconventional music-practice: events plus artists’ database- INTERACT: CPD suite, including training, workshops & mentoring.
