Rosie Brownhill
COMPOSER, SESSION MUSICIAN
Cadw Music
Commissioned by Cadw, I was asked to create a series of four unique musical themes for Cadw's visual content, such as Cadw's Lifelong Learning films.
The music composed is reflective of different locations in Wales, time periods, and activities.
Monthly Composition Group
If you want to get involved or find out more, send me an email info@rosiebrownhill.co.uk or sign up for an account on the right and you will get access to the members page with more information.
Each month I give a theme and memebers compose either a song, instrumental or a poem inspired by the theme! It's a really fun challenge and quite informal, for any abilities!

Letitia Hill - Lumper Project Installation Commission
In March 2021 I was approached by Artist and friend Letita Hill to compose and produce a short piece of music to accompany a video showcasing her Lumper Project Installation.
The Lumper Project is a memorial to the victims of the Great Irish Potato Famine of 1845. An immersive installation encompassing multiple sculptures which one is kinetic, swaying like wheat or corn in a field. Representing one of the basic concepts of ritual theory.
The video can be viewed here.
Guided by the Greenwood -
Erbe Commission
In December 2020 I was thrilled to begin working on a new sound work 'Guided by the Greenwood', Inspired by the Wyre Forest, Worcester.
Commissioned by Erbe with support from Arts Council England, the piece will be used in a series of future podcasts from Erbe.
Erbe is a project ran by JMG Creative.

Jane Siberry, Song Garden
During the month of May 2020, I was lucky enough to be signed up to something new and exciting from accomplished singer songwriter Jane Siberry. Jane lead 'Song Garden', a two week songwriting workshop, along with musician Renee Cologne via zoom. 'Go Get Up And Dance Mother', is a product of that unique experience.
Special thanks to friend and artist Letitia Hill who signed a group of us up to Song Garden, it was a lot of fun.
