Bushra El-Turk’s Three Tributes, co-commissioned by West Cork Chamber Music Festival, String Quartet Biennale Amsterdam and Borletti-Buitoni Trust in 2024, is being recorded by NMC and the album will be released 24 April.

Dudok Quartet performed the Irish Premiere of Three Tributes in St Brendan’s Church in 2024.

Extended Play is NMC’s new digital series championing outstanding composers yet to release a full-length album. Launching with EPs by Ben Nobuto and Bushra El-Turk, the series presents bold new music shaped by our turbulent times. Each release is a tightly focused 20-minute digital EP, supported by film content, mentoring, and a worldwide digital release to help composers reach new audiences and move their careers forward.

You can download or stream the work, which has been shortlisted for both the Ivor Novello Award and the RPS Award in the Chamber Music category.
