Claire Cope
Born:
Claire Cope is an award winning British composer, pianist and bandleader whose work spans both contemporary classical, and jazz and improvised music. Concerned primarily with emotional connectivity and story-telling, Claire’s music is often inspired by literature, with a strong sense of narrative and ‘journeying’. Her music has been performed in Europe and the United States, and she has performed at the Manchester Jazz Festival, the London Jazz Festival and as part of the BBC Proms Plus Series, broadcast on BBC Radio 3.
In 2022 Claire won a Marvin Hamlisch International Music Award, and in 2023 a UK Arts Council DYCP grant to compose new music for her 11 piece contemporary jazz ensemble, Ensemble C. Following their successful debut album ‘Small World’ in 2020, their latest album ‘Every Journey’ was recently released on the New York based Adhyâropa label to widespread critical acclaim, with Ron Schepper of Textura describing it as ‘a tremendous realization of her vision’.
