CoDI is our long-term Artist Development programme which enables and supports composers and music-creators in Wales through paid creative development pathways, workshops, training and networking opportunities. Established in 2018, CoDI supports artists and music-creators across genres and at all stages in their practices and careers.

​

We believe that if you’re making music in Wales, it’s Welsh music. We’re continually evolving to improve access and remove barriers to our programmes and open our work to an ever-expanding range of musicians. We’re part of several UK-wide and international networks, learning through collaboration and training, and sharing best practice with partners. We follow Sound and Music’s Fair Access Principles and work to respond and adapt to the needs of artists in Wales. Equitable practice, accessibility and championing the Welsh language are Cornerstones at the core of our work.

​

We’ve been fortunate to be supported in driving CoDI forward through project grants from our regular funders Arts Council of Wales, alongside from 2023, Jerwood Foundation investment, alongside other funders and partners. We are proud to be a member of the PRS Foundation Talent Development Network, and this funding is integral to our Artist Development work, including our current CoDI strands.

CoDI 2024/25 features paid, artist-led pathways, alongside INTERACT, a suite of workshops and training. Read about past projects in our CoDi archive.
