The City Music Foundation (CMF) has announced its latest cohort of artists, its 11th intake. The 2024 CMF Artists are Aleksandra Myslek (collaborative piano), Duo Melus (flute & piano), Edward Picton-Turbervill (collaborative piano/composer), Ensemble Augelletti (Baroque ensemble), Florian Störtz (bass- baritone), Geirþrúður Anna Guðmundsdóttir (cello), George Robarts (baritone), Gus & Eleanor (guitar & voice/double bass), Joanna Harries (mezzo-soprano), Kyan Quartet (string quartet), Nikita Lukinov (piano), Sofia Sacco (piano) and Theano Papadaki (soprano).

For the first time this year, the artists applied to the scheme with a particular project in mind. The artists are chosen regardless of instrument or genre, and as 2024 CMF Artists, they each receive financial and advisory support for their project alongside the coaching, performance opportunities and other numerous short and long-term benefits that CMF continues to offer.

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