Young Composers’ Prize: winner announced

We are delighted to announce that the winner of this year’s Sound World Young Composers’ Prize is Jasper Eaglesfield. The shortlist of 3 pieces was performed by the Bristol Ensemble under John Pickard at Sunday’s Beyond The Menagerie… concert at St. George’s, Bristol.

John Pickard, Jasper Eaglesfield and Julian Leeks

Julian Leeks, Sound World Director said, “All of the shortlisted pieces were great and the feedback from the audience about them has been absolutely fantastic. But Jasper’s piece was really quite special and he’s a worthy winner of the competition.”

“I’m sure he’ll go on to do great things and we’ll all follow his progress with interest.”

It’s with great pleasure that we welcome Sir James MacMillan as our second contributor to our recommendations page Sound World Sounds. His choice, Martyrs – Gaelic Psalm from the islands of NW Scotland. Its extraordinary combination of the individual and the congregational has a transcendental beauty unlike anything we have ever heard before.
