THE VIOLA COMMISSIONING CIRCLE 

The Viola Commissioning Circle underwrites commissions of new works for the viola to allow composers to start work before co-commissioner funding has been secured. We will not accept any unsolicited approach regarding a commission, whether from a composer, musician, or any other party, but welcome enquiries from orchestras, venues or others interested in programming commissioned works
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
