The Nouveau Classical Project (NCP) re-imagines classical and new music through interdisciplinary projects and connects emerging composers with diverse audiences. A hybrid production hub and performing ensemble, NCP is spearheaded by pianist Sugar Vendil, whose intention in starting NCP was to bring creativity and innovation to the classical music experience. Since its inception in 2008, the group has been hailed by NPR Music’s Deceptive Cadence for “putting a new face on classical music.” Awards include a 2011 JFund Commission in collaboration with Trevor Gureckis and an installment on Music at the Anthology’s (MATA) 2011 Interval 4.0 Series. NCP collaborates with composers to create music for live fashion shows, including those of CFDA-nominee Pamela Love, Project Runway winner Gretchen Jones, and others. NCP is currently pursuing large-scale projects that challenge traditional performance formats.

BESPOKE VIDEO PRODUCTION FOR TODAY'S CLASSICAL MUSICIAN 

From @ICArtists by @MartinKendrick

ICA Films is the video production arm of International Classical Artists, a classical music artist management agency in London.

International Classical Artists has a dedicated digital department with specialist knowledge of producing promotional films for classical musicians. We recognise how vital it is in today’s market for the artist to have an ever evolving portfolio of high quality video content and we are perfectly placed to help you achieve this.

We will work with you at all stages of the project, from initial concept to distributing the finished film. We can create concept ‘music video style’ content as well as filming interviews, rehearsals, recording sessions, performances and more. We offer complete flexibility to suit all situations and budgets.

We also offer bespoke photography services, both as part of a video project, or for stand-alone photo shoots.

Born in Scotland and raised in the tropical rainforests of Costa Rica and Honduras, I enjoy adventures both close to home and in far away places. Composers which have inspired me include: Michael Nyman, Ludovico Einaudi, Arvo Pärt, Eric Whitacre, Thomas Newman, Alexandre Desplat, John Williams and Philip Glass. 

I find music can express much more than words alone. Improvising on the piano somehow feels like the most natural way to express my feelings. 

No matter where you are from or what language you speak, music is universal.

Through my endeavours, I have been fortunate enough to have received several music awards including from the EMI Sound Foundation, the Worshipful Company of Leathersellers, the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Awards for Young Musicians, the Musicians Benevolent Fund, the Walter Bergmann Fund, the North-East of Scotland Music School,  the Robert Nicol Trust, the Dr John Calder Trust and the Cross Trust.

I also work as a private tutor. In case you would like to arrange a lesson, please follow the link below:
