British Council's Musicians in Residence programme: Call for partners

The British Council's Musicians in Residence programme offers music creators the opportunity to spend extended time immersing themselves in another place, being hosted by a local partner organisation.

The programme is delivered in partnership with the PRS Foundation and host organisations around the world. Previous residencies have given UK music makers the chance to spend time in Brazil, China, Russia and the UAE.

UK partners will host a resident from either Brazil, Egypt, Indonesia or South Africa, for a four-week digital residency between February and April 2022. Due to ongoing disruption to global travel, residents will undertake their residency from their home location.

The British Council welcomes applications from organisations of all types, scales and disciplines, from music to the wider arts and beyond (for example science or technology).

Hosting partners will receive a contribution of £2,000 towards their time, and a further £600 towards the costs of producing the sharing/work-in-progress/performance.

Please complete an expression of interest by 26 August.
