Pick ‘n’ mix perfection: Thanks to everyone who came to CoMA Singers' concert on Sunday, a wonderfully vibrant performance exploring endless permutations of numbers, words, patterns and more. The action didn’t just stay confined to the stage, with the audience getting involved too!

Meet our newest CoMA associate ensemble, Ashford Community Drum Band, where the joy is as infectious as the rhythms! www.coma.org/get-involved... Formed in 2022, the group is open to anyone in the community, with drop-in sessions for casual players and a core band who rehearse regularly.🧵1/2

Thanks to Tempo magazine for this fantastic review of one of CoMA's 2025 performances of @uriagnon.bsky.social's MARCH, as captured on the @nmcrecordings.bsky.social New Music Biennial compilation! We love being described as "quietly radical", although MARCH was one of our less quiet moments... 📣🥁🗣️

If you're a member of @makingmusicuk.bsky.social, look out for CoMA CEO Tamara in the latest edition of Highnotes magazine, talking about how CoMA ensembles can work closely with contemporary composers to bring a piece to life. Plus there are some top picks from the CoMA catalogue!

CALLOUT: We're looking for three female/gender-diverse creatives working outside of music who want to expand their practice by composing for the first time! You'll receive mentoring and an £800 honorarium as you create a new piece using everyday items. Apply by 10 June: www.coma.org/get-involved...
