Performance Sponsorship Program

In order to foster more performances that bring our composer’s music to life, CMC BC offers $1,000 sponsorships to performances featuring a program of music of which at least half is written by BC Associate Composers. These sponsorships are available to individuals, new music practitioners and performers, ensembles, organizations and presenters.

.

We are particularly interested in supporting performances outside the city of Vancouver, which have priority. (Tours of multiple performances outside Vancouver may be eligible for a larger sponsorship.) We apply an equity lens to all applications and favour applications featuring Indigenous composers and performers.

.

CMC BC will promote all sponsored concerts in our Centrepulse bi-weekly newsletter and on the Concert page of our website at bc.cmccanada.org. In return we ask that “Sponsored by the Canadian Music Centre BC” is printed on the program page of printed programs and on any printed promotional materials along with the CMC BC logo, and to include this wording on any digital promotional materials, including social media posts or webpages.

.

We also ask that you provide us with photographs of the event, a printed copy of the program, and the number that attended, after the completed performance.

.

Applications are a simple one-page form, and will be reviewed by staff as they are received on a first-come, first served basis.

*Please note: Applications for 2025 are now at capacity
