Summary

The Cockaigne Fund supports boundary-pushing musical research, development, and performances to delight, inform, and move participants and audiences alike.

The Fund supports creative, challenging, and original projects that explore cultures and traditions, past and present. They have a particular interest in historically-informed projects related to classical and traditional music from the 9th to 19th centuries.

The Fund may also consider community projects that push boundaries, strive for excellence, and enable people to access new musical experiences.
