They're matching donations dollar-for-dollar

APRA AMCOS's Art Music Fund, working to support art music composers in the Australian music industry, has secured extra funding thanks to a joint partnership with fundraising platform Australian Cultural Fund.

All money donated to the Double The Score campaign will be matched dollar-for-dollar (up to $12,000) by the Australian Cultural Fund.

Creative Partnerships CEO Fiona Menzies says, "We’re pleased to be working with APRA AMCOS to encourage donations so that audiences here and around the world can see Australian works performed in diverse contexts, from concert halls to festivals, on radio and online."

APRA AMCOS's Dean Ormston also adds, "APRA AMCOS is committed to developing opportunities for songwriters and composers, including the creation of new Australian work, and most importantly, performance opportunities for new works. The Art Music Fund was set up specifically to support these objectives."
