Applicants are invited to write a short work for two violins, cello and harpsichord as a 21st-century response to baroque music using the same scoring.
The award is open to composers resident in the UK, and who are aged either 18 and under, or 19–25.
The Award Day – 15 May 2025 in York – will include a daytime workshop for shortlisted candidates led by Dr Christopher Fox, and a performance by The Brook Street Band of the shortlisted compositions at the National Centre for Early Music. Judging the works will be a panel comprising Dr Delma Tomlin, MBE (director, NCEM), Les Pratt (producer, BBC Radio 3) and Tatty Theo (cellist, The Brook Street Band).
