Artist Representation at CMC

Thank you for your interest in engaging with the Contemporary Music Centre. We are not currently accepting applications for Artist Representation.

Throughout 2026, CMC will conduct a review of Artist Representation (process). We aim to reform this area of our activities to better reflect the Vision, Mission and Values of the Contemporary Music Centre and our future direction.

CMC exists to achieve impact for New Music from Ireland by supporting the creation and dissemination of the work of artists active in New Music in Ireland.

CMC’s mission is to support artists active in New Music to reach their artistic potential. We connect artists with each other and with organisations, and we aim to engage audiences with New Music from Ireland. As the unique archive for New Music from Ireland, we map the ever-evolving landscape. 

In 2026, CMC will mark 40 years supporting the development of New Music in Ireland. This milestone year for CMC signals a period of transition, CMC is listening, reflecting, and evolving in response to artists’ needs and the changing cultural context. Through this, we aim to ensure that artists are supported not just to sustain their work, but to take risks, explore new ideas, and share them with audiences in meaningful ways.

The online application form for artist representation has been deactivated while we conduct this review and reform this area of our activities.

CMC welcomes any feedback or suggestions by email to representation@cmc.ie.
