NMC Recordings is an award-winning new music charity. Founded in 1989 by composer Colin Matthews OBE, we are devoted to enriching cultural life by connecting listeners with exceptional contemporary classical music from across the British Isles.   

We believe that new music is a dynamic and engaging art-form, and we seek to inspire and challenge audiences through the release and promotion of recordings, innovative artistic partnerships, commissioning new repertoire, and delivering education work.  

We fulfil our charitable aims by:  

• collaborating with leading composers, artists, orchestras, and ensembles 
• producing high quality recordings of outstanding works 
• promoting recordings and other resources to expand worldwide audiences for new music 
• preserving this creativity for future generations
