The Drummond Fund
The Drummond Fund was been set up by the Royal Philharmonic Society in memory of writer, broadcaster and impresario Sir John Drummond CBE (1934 – 2006), and that of his great friend the English born Diaghilev dancer Lydia Sokolova (1896-1974), to provide funds to support the commissioning of music for dance.
The first commissions supported by the fund were performed in autumn 2009 Read more
Composer-Choreographer Exchange Day
Friday 7 May 2010, Southbank Centre
The relationship between choreographer and composer is complex and demanding – both can find themselves working with unknowns. The RPS Drummond Fund has identified that few opportunities exist for composers and choreographers to meet and has decided, as its next initiative to facilitate an Exchange day in collaboration with Southbank. Choreographers and composers will be invited to explore their different artistic ideas with a view to developing new partnerships. The day will take place at Southbank, with full details announced in the New Year.
