Exchange Talk: Plug Festival Panel Discussion: Composition Now

The PLUG Festival at the RCS has now been running for some 20 years, resulting in the performances of around 1,000 new works by composition students at various stages of their learning, offering a unique learning experience, whilst allowing for ambition and experimentation.

This panel discussion will focus on the importance of festivals for the creation, performance, and sharing of new music, what we have learned from events such as PLUG, and how we might continue to offer a supportive environment to creators, to encourage the sharing and development of new work in the future.
