OTOprojects has been set up to facilitate certain aspects of our programming with a particular focus on building relationships with artists and institutions outside of the U.K. Our aim is to provide a platform for performers who have had little or no exposure in the UK before.
We hope that the residency programme will enable performers to forge a deeper relationship with the venue and audience as well as encouraging collaboration with local musicians.
*CALL FOR EVENT PROPOSALS*
Sound and Music is teaming up with London’s hub for experimental music Café Oto to award four grants of £2,000 towards the creation and delivery of new live events. These events can be of any genre, format or description, but must have a leaning towards experimental/fringe/underground activity and feature artists from outside the UK who have not previously performed at Café Oto.
This open call aims to stimulate event organisers and promoters to take curatorial risks and develop ambitious ideas. Your proposal could be a one-off live event, a residency, a festival, something we haven’t thought of yet, or a combination or variant on any of the above.
If you have an event idea you would like to submit for consideration then please contact info@soundandmusic.org for more information and application guidelines.
All event submissions must be received by 1st July 2010.
