Promotion of music projects in Vaud
The cultural department of the canton of Vaud is now offering funding for contemporary music every two years. CHF 20,000 is available for each cycle.
The contributions are awarded to young music professionals by the Département de la formation, de la jeunesse et de la culture (DFJC). Support is being offered for the first time this year. There is a partnership with the Fondation romande pour la chanson et les musiques actuelles (FCMA), which can continue the support.
Applications may be submitted by persons under the age of 35 who are Vaudois or live in the canton of Vaud, have been practicing their musical activities professionally for at least five years and operate within professional structures, i.e. have a label, a publishing house or professional management.
The closing date for applications is August 1. Interested parties can find more information at www.vd.ch/bourses-culture
