An opportunity for young people in Years 10 - 13 (ages 14 - 18) to compose guided by professional composer and double bassist Ashley John Long and 4 instrumentalists from the UPROAR ensemble. Ashley is one of the commissioned composers on our spring tour. He is also the bass player in the UPROAR ensemble and lecturer in Composition at Cardiff University. 

The workshops will be invaluable for anyone who loves creating their own music and will help develop their composition skills. It is ideal for anyone studying towards their GCSE, BTEC, or A-level in music. Each workshop will end with a performance for family and friends and a recording made.

Participants will spend an intensive day learning techniques, gaining ideas and trying out new things out with UPROAR’s professional musicians. They will also gain insight into the music performed in our concert ‘Ligeti’s Chamber Concerto and New Music from Wales.
