Dear Phil

This issue of iNotes is packed with opportunities for you to get involved. We're announcing the opening of applications for our annual Adopt a Composer scheme, inviting you to join us in Bristol at our conference on 11 September, flagging up a fantastic festival of singing we are organising in partnership with Classic FM later in the year, and inviting nominations for our prestigious Lady Hilary Groves prize. We want you to get your composing pencils at the ready to write us a celebratory birthday song, and help find us new Directors for Making Music 
to steer the organisation as we continue to grow. We really
hope there's something for everyone here!

With very best wishes

Sarah
