Adopt an artist

Supporting the musicians of the future!

Each year, it costs YCAT over £20,000 to support just one artist.

By Adopting an artist you can enjoy building a meaningful relationship with your artists. You can make a real difference, directly funding the work we are able to carry out for them.

- A donation of £5,000 would enable us to provide professional PR & Marketing materials, including a high-quality photoshoot, live concert recordings.

- A donation of £7,500 would cover the cost of a full year of worldwide concert promotion (30+ engagements)

- A donation of £10,000+ would cover the entire cost of nurturing a YCAT artist and enabling them to unlock their full musical potential.

In recognition of your support, you will be invited to follow your artist’s journey, attend performances and will be acknowledged in their biographies worldwide and forever know you have played a vital part in their journey to becoming an international artist or ensemble.

“I am thrilled to be adopting Tabea Debus. Not only do I get to see her career develop and follow her success, but I also get to know the person behind the instrument and that has been a great joy!”
