Young Croydon Composers

Join us for an unforgettable evening of music and inspiration.

Don’t miss the grand finale of Young Croydon Composers, a journey of musical brilliance that began in 2018. Guided by acclaimed musicians and mentors Shri Sriram and Dennis Rollins MBE, this event marks the culmination of years of hard work and dedication. Plus, look out for a guest appearance from Nadia Rose!

Shri Sriram is an award-winning bassist, composer, producer and arranger whose dynamic quest for musical innovation spans genres from Indian classical to jazz, enriching the program with invaluable insights for the young composers. British trombone player Dennis Rollins MBE, a passionate performer and educator, brings his wealth of experience to nurture Croydon’s next generation of musical talent.

This unique event brings together musicians from diverse backgrounds, including a Western orchestra and choir from Croydon Music & Arts, rappers from The Rap Club, and an Indian classical choir from Croydon Academy of Eastern Arts, to craft something truly extraordinary.

This is your chance to witness original compositions alongside specially commissioned pieces by Shri Sriram and Dennis Rollins MBE in a celebration of Croydon’s young musical talent.

This event is part of Croydon Remix, the closing weekend of our year as London Borough of Culture.
