Profiles
The Contemporary Music Centre is Ireland's national archive and resource
centre for new music, supporting the work of composers throughout the
Republic and Northern Ireland.
The Centre is used, nationally and internationally, by performers,
composers, promoters and members of the public interested in finding out
more about music in Ireland. Its library and sound archive, open to the
public free of charge, contain the only comprehensive collection in
existence of music by Irish composers. Extensive reference and advice
services are available and the Centre's web site provides access to CMC's
resources for those who cannot visit in person.
The Contemporary Music Centre engages in an ongoing programme of
development work to promote new Irish music at home and abroad, and is a
member of the Forum for Music in Ireland and the International Association
of Music Information Centres (IAMIC).
