Nathan commissioned by Corvus Consort and their 'Twelve Composer's Composing' project

About

Corvus Consort presents “Twelve Composers Composing”, a project of new commissions for the Twelve Days of Christmas 2020.

Twelve of the UK’s most exciting young composers have been commissioned to write twelve new miniature works based on the text of the well-known song “The Twelve Days of Christmas”.

Taking the song’s familiar list of gifts as their texts, the new works will be 30-second miniatures for a choir of twelve voices, and will feature in twelve short videos to be released on the Twelve Days of Christmas — starting on Christmas Day and running until 5th January 2021.

Fundraising

We are running a Crowdfunding campaign to make this project possible.

The money raised will ensure that we can offer respectable fees to the young composers and singers involved in this project.

10% of all money raised by the crowdfunding campaign will go to Crisis this Christmas. Crisis works throughout the year to tackle homelessness, and their annual Christmas fundraiser helps those members of our society most in need of support, at a time of year which is all about community and companionship — “no one should be homeless and alone this Christmas”.
