Since 1956, we have honoured the most remarkable composers, and we are building on that legacy with a new, elevated moment to honour their craft,\u201d said Roberto Neri, CEO of The Ivors Academy, in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are broadening recognition to reflect the full breadth of contemporary composition. More original music will be eligible, including works heard by audiences for the first time across a wide range of forms and contexts, from stage to screen, games, streaming, radio, festivals, in communities and beyond. This is about giving composers the recognition they richly deserve by creating a new annual celebration of composition and its impact.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Composers will be able to submit eligible works for the 2026 Ivors Composer Awards from June 1.<\/p>\n<p>The Ivor Novello Awards were established in 1956 to reward Britain and Ireland\u2019s songwriting and composing talent.
