Civitella Advisory Council Member Tania León (CRF 2003, Juror) has been selected as the London Philharmonic Orchestra’s next Composer-in-Residence starting September 2023! Through two seasons, Tania will present world and U.K. premieres, along with being the Composer Mentor for the LPO Young Composers.
“I am delighted to have been appointed the London Philharmonic Orchestra’s next Composer-in-Residence. Over the two years, I will be able to really get to know the Orchestra and the personalities of each player; to write specifically for this group of talented musicians will be a joy. I am also really looking forward to mentoring the LPO Young Composers and I would strongly encourage anyone thinking about applying to go for it. It is so important that mentoring is available to young artists and I’m so glad I can play a small part in developing the next generation.” -Tania León
