2025 City Music Foundation Artists Announced

City Music Foundation is pleased to announce the 12th cohort of artists joining the CMF Artist Programme as ‘2025 CMF Artists’….

Basil Alter (Violin), Ensemble Renard (Wind Quintet), Immy Churchill (Jazz Singer & Singer/Songwriter), Intesa Duo (Gamba Duo & Voice), Jong Sun Woo (Piano with Associate Artist Baritone Felix Gygli), Londinium Consort (Barqoue Ensemble), Violetta Suvini (Violin) and Will Harmer (Piano & Composer, with Associate Artists cellist Sebastian Hill & tenor Gabriel Francis-Dehqani).

From an outstanding and diverse field of applicants, these artists have been selected to join CMF’s roster. They are the 12th intake on the scheme, selected through a series of audition stages, culminating in a final live audition to our expert panels of advisors. These artists were chosen due to their exceptional talent, regardless of instrument or genre, and because the CMF Team felt they would benefit best from the range of support CMF provides.

Current and previous CMF artists include Connaught Brass, soprano Anna Cavaliero, cellist Margarita Balanas, mezzo Helen Charlston, pianist Samson Tsoy, violin & piano duo Foyle-Stsura, Ligeti Quartet, mezzo-soprano Lotte Betts-Dean and jazz double-bassist Misha Mullov-Abbado.
