For this reason a major survey of composers has been launched by the Royal College of Music’s Centre for Music and Multimedia. The survey seeks to investigate the appropriateness and effectiveness of training and education opportunities for music composers, both in prospect and retrospect. It will capture the experiences of a large number and wide range of composers and songwriters across Europe and beyond, in order to lobby for better opportunities and resources to study the art and craft of composing, including lifelong learning.</p> <p>The survey has been developed by Professor David Burnand, Head of the CMM at the Royal College of Music, London; with support and advice from colleagues in the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors, the Contemporary Music Centre Ireland, the National University of Ireland at Maynooth, Leiden University Academy of Creative and Performing Arts, and the University of Hertfordshire. </p> <p>Survey link:<br /> <a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/composing" rel="nofollow">http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/composing</a></p> <p>Web page HTML code:<br /> <a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/composing">Click here to take survey</a></p> <p>Contact:<br /> All enquiries to: <a href="mailto:dburnand@rcm.ac.uk">dburnand@rcm.ac.uk</a> </p>
