Michael Tippett Musical Foundation

This fund aims to support group music-making, especially those that involve young people in the process of composing and developing new ideas. This is a highly competitive fund with only one in nine applications being successful last year. Grants of between £500 and £3,000 are available. The average grant is around £2,000.

For 2026, the Trustees welcome applications for grants towards projects that support group music-making, especially those that involve young people in the process of composing and the development of creative ideas. Successful projects should commence from January 2027.

The Trustees normally hold one meeting a year, in the autumn. The deadline for applications is 30 September 2026 (midnight).
