The Ivors Composer Awards

The Ivors Composer Awards, hosted by Kate Molleson and Tom Service from the 大象传媒 studios

The Ivors Composer Awards presented by Kate Molleson and Tom Service.

Now in their 18th year, The Ivors Composer Awards celebrate the best new works by composers writing for classical, jazz and sound art.

Fifty-three works across eleven categories have been nominated for an Ivor Novello Award, demonstrating the wide diversity of settings, styles and themes of contemporary music being composed in the UK. These eleven categories range from music written for orchestral and chamber music to stage music, jazz and sound art along with music designed for community participation. With the nominees ranging in age from their early twenties to their early eighties, The Ivors Composer Awards present an ideal opportunity to catch up with some of the best of the UK's creative talent in an action-packed two hours.

This year, the awards ceremony is hosted by Radio 3 as an exclusive broadcast only event with interviews and extracts from many of the winners and nominees.
