The Board of Trustees confirms that the annual report and financial statements of the Charity comply with current statutory requirements, including the Charity Act 2011, as well as the requirements of the Charity’s governing document and the provisions of the ‘Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) second edition (effective 1 January 2019)’, and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). ## **OBJECTS AND ACTIVITIES** The objects of the Charity are to promote knowledge and appreciation of the arts and in particular the art of music for the benefit of the public. The Trust carries out its mission by providing scholarships to exceptional young musicians. These are mainly pianists and singers at a critical point in their artistic development. They are offered the opportunity to study under the guidance of the Trust’s Artistic Director, the concert pianist Dame Imogen Cooper. The Trust’s focus on awarding these scholarships echoes Imogen Cooper’s own experience as a young English pianist when she was invited to work with Alfred Brendel, Arthur Rubinstein and Clifford Curzon, who were at the peak of their careers. She says it was, ‘an experience that has resonated with me throughout my performing life’. Through the Trust, Imogen Cooper’s wish to offer similarly significant experiences to today’s young pianists is fulfilled. Commission's public benefit guidance in determining the activities undertaken by the charity. The Trust is fortunate to hold the study weeks in a secluded private property in France, outside Eygalières in rural Provence. The combination of three fine pianos, occasional additional teachers, warmly generous hospitality and a lack of external distractions offers a sense of retreat and renewal, rarely found in an urban environment. We are deeply indebted to our hosts for creating the environment that makes the study weeks such a success. ## **REVIEW OF THE YEAR** The Imogen Cooper Music Trust (ICMT) continued to pursue its founding purposes in offering intense one-to-one study with distinguished pianist, Dame Imogen Cooper, and fine young musicians, mainly pianists, occasionally in partnership with singers. One study week was held this year in Eygalières from 24-28 April, once again hosted with great generosity by Bryan Youl and Pat Ryan. The two fine young pianists, selected by Dame Imogen Cooper were: Alim Beisembayev Leeds International Piano Competition First Prize Winner 2021. Ariel Lanyi Third Prize, Leeds International Piano Competition 2021 Prize winner, Inaugural Young Classical Artists Trust (London) 2021 Prize winner, Concert Artists Guild International Auditions, New York 2021 Prix Serdang, 2023 Alim Beisembayev wrote of his experience: ICMT scholarships cover a one-to-one study week with Imogen Cooper ending with an open masterclass and recital. The study weeks take place in an environment of peace and tranquillity, far away from the distractions of daily life, where scholarship holders benefit from intense work on the great piano repertoire. The Trust commits to offering the study weeks on a fully funded basis. Travel, meals, accommodation and tuition are covered by the Trust to ensure that no gifted young musician will be excluded, regardless of background or financial circumstances. Participants in the study weeks are also offered a London recital following the course. These are arranged by the Trust, with their expenses covered and a modest fee paid. _‘There could not be a more ideal location and a better_ _company than to visit Eygalières and spend time working with Dame Imogen Cooper last April. It was an_ _unforgettable week of endless music making and learning from the deep and extensive knowledge of Imogen on the_ _interpretation of greatest music ever written as well as simple life lessons. It was my first time in Provence which I hope isn’t my last, because to be surrounded by the nature of Provence is a dose of endless inspiration which is proved by many artists and musicians that lived or visited the area._ _This was an enriching and inspiring week which was very much needed. Thank you to Bryan, Pat, Imogen and the rest of the ICMT.’_ Ariel Lanyi also wrote: In making these commitments, the Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to the Charity _‘The week spent in Eygalieres was truly ideal for music making. In the midst of tight schedules and frequent_ **Registered charity no. 1162347** **3** **Board of Trustees’ report** **The Imogen Cooper Music Trust** _Year ended 31 December 2023_ _traveling, it was such a relief to be able to spend a week in such an enchanting part of the world._ _Working with Imogen is a transformative experience. With her unparalleled musicianship, sharp ear, and incisive mind, she raises the most important questions. The advice I received from her during this week has been of enormous value to all works I am performing, not only those which we worked on. And of course, the hospitality of Pat and Bryan is a whole experience in itself. Between Pat's sublime meals_ _and Bryan's indomitable energy and humour, there was never a dull moment!‘_ Following the closure of Pavilion Road at the end of 2022, ICMT presented three recitals in 2023 at the Razumovsky Academy, Kensal Green, London; a unique purpose-built concert room seating an audience of up to 80, with facilities for rehearsal and hospitality. The recitals were generously hosted by the Razumovsky Trust with ICMT. The recitalists were the beneficiaries of the 2022 study weeks. All offered outstanding performances which were very warmly received by the discerning audience.

They already hosted concerts there in a beautiful concert room, magnificently converted from farm buildings, where they have a fine Steinway D piano. They also could offer rooms to stay for two scholars, as well as Imogen, Alice and Penny. This study week was planned for January 2024. The Trust also plans two further Study Weeks in Eygalières, in April and November as well as further recitals at the Razumovsky Academy. - 15 May Jeeyoung Lim, Korean bass-baritone, with Keval Shah, piano - 8 October Evren Ozel, piano - 15 November Ukrainian soprano, Iryna Kyshiliaruk with Keval Shah, piano, _ICMT ALUMNI TO DATE IN ORDER OF PARTICIPATION_ Lara Melda _piano_ Mishka Momen _piano_ Samson Tsoy _piano_ Alexandra Vaduva _piano_ Pavel Kolesnikov _piano_ Florian Caroubi _piano_ (attended twice) Cristian Sandrin _piano_ Anna Geniushene _piano_ Dominic Degavino _piano_ Anna Szałucka _piano_ Maria Hegele _mezzo-soprano_ Lotte Betts-Dean _mezzo-soprano_ Andrey Lebedev _classical guitar_ Sarah Gilford _soprano_ Xinyuan Wang _piano_ Adèle Charvet _mezzo soprano_ Ariel Lanyi _piano_ Ying Li _piano_ Eric Lu _piano_ Victor Braojos _piano_ Dmitrii Kalashnikov _piano_ Ignas Maknickas _piano_ Elisabeth Pion _piano_ Maxim Kinasov _piano_ Wouter Valvekens _piano_ William Bracken, _piano_ Aidan Mikdad, _piano_ ## **ADMINSTRATION OF THE CHARITY** In the first quarter of the year, the Trustees received the resignation of Mary Orr, who during her tenure of Administrator had given very freely of her time, whilst also making a significant and generous contribution to the purchase of the ICMT Yamaha C7 piano. Following this, the Trust appointed Alice Wright as its administrator and she commenced the role in August 2023. Alice came with excellent experience including a time at Askonas Holt as assistant to Imogen Cooper’s Artist Manager. She was also known to Trustee Penny Jonas and was warmly welcomed to the ICMT. Following the retirement of Chairman Jonathan FreemanAttwood, the Trustee meetings had been chaired alternately by David Green and Penny Jonas for a short period. Through a period of reconsideration, it was agreed that there should be a designated Chair, and the Trustees appointed Penny Jonas to take the Chair going forward. Through the change of administrators, there was an early consultation on the ownership of the Trust’s data and legal advice was sought to ensure that ICMT was compliant. The ICMT website www.imogencoopermusictrust.com continues to be maintained and edited by Joyce Reeve, to whom all at ICMT are immensely grateful and offer heartfelt thanks. **Registered charity no. 1162347** **4** **Board of Trustees’ report** **The Imogen Cooper Music Trust** _Year ended 31 December 2023_ ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE & MANAGEMENT** The Imogen Cooper Music Trust is a charitable incorporated organisation administered by Trustees and governed by its constitution dated 1 June 2015. It was registered with the Charity Commission on 23 June 2015. Every Trustee is appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the Trustees with an option to remain a Trustee for three consecutive terms All concerned with the Imogen Cooper Music Trust were deeply saddened by the death of Sir Nicholas Stadlen in October 2023, following a long illness. A close friend of Imogen Cooper, he had been instrumental in the founding of the Trust and has been sorely missed. The Trust owed him a great debt of gratitude for his wisdom, legal experience and huge generosity of spirit. The trust was also sorry to lose Trustee David Green who offered his resignation in February 2023, due to health and other family issues. Warmest thanks were expressed for his time and expertise which he had generously contributed to the Trust’s work. Trustee John Reeve was asked to lead on the Trust’s financial matters, working on budgets and management accounts with treasurer John Batten and administrator Alice Wright. In the period, the Trustees all gave their time voluntarily and received no remuneration or other benefits. Regarding the Trust’s duty of care, the Trustees have always promoted a positive culture to ensure that all involved from artists to volunteers feel able to freely report any concerns. The Artistic Director of the Imogen Cooper Music Trust is the distinguished pianist Dame Imogen Cooper. Dame Imogen is internationally renowned both as a performing and also as a recording artist. In the period she received a token honorarium of £4,500. We give special thanks to our past Administrator, Mary Orr, to our current Administrator Alice Wright and to John Batten in his continued role as Treasurer. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** The Charity achieved a surplus of £53,908 (2022: £66,704) in the period resulting in total funds at the period-end of £186,398 (2022: £132,490). Of these funds £166,735 (2022: £105,188) were unrestricted as to use and £19,663 (2022: £27,302) was restricted for a variety of purposes as outlined in the financial statements. This positive result was achieved due to an additional unexpected legacy of £75,000 on top of the £75,000 which the Charity was notified of in early 2022 and therefore recognised in the prior period. The Trustees are intending to utilise a significant proportion of these additional funds to provide support grants to previous and current scholars, as well as provide additional study weeks and recitals. They are currently reviewing exactly what this would entail and will then allocate reserves to this purpose in the next financial year. ## _RESERVES POLICY_ The Charity has no significant ongoing liabilities, and so the Trustees do not need to maintain reserves to cover closedown costs should income drop significantly. As a result, the Trustees aim to keep unrestricted reserves sufficient to meet six months operating costs to provide time to meet any shortfalls that may arise in the future. At the end of the current period this equates to c. £25,000. The current free reserves of £166,735 are significantly above this as result of the legacy noted above, however it is not deemed excessive, especially considering the fact that the Trustees are currently mapping out plans to allocate some of these reserves as noted above. ## **STATEMENT OF BOARD OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law they are required to prepare the financial statements in accordance with UK Accounting Standards and applicable law (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. Under charity law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the excess of income over expenditure for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and, - prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue its activities. The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and **Registered charity no. 1162347** **5** **Board of Trustees’ report** **The Imogen Cooper Music Trust** _Year ended 31 December 2023_ enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the Charity and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities. The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the financial and other relevant information included on the Charity’s website. Legislation in the UK governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. In addition, the Trustees confirm that they are happy that content of the annual review in pages 3 to 6 of this document meet the requirements of the Trustees’ Annual Report under charity law. They also confirm that the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the Charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published on 16 July 2014. This report was approved and authorised for issue by the Board of Trustees on 18 October 2024 and signed on its behalf by: Penny Jonas _**Trustee**_ **Registered charity no. 1162347** **6** **Independent Examiner’s report** **The Imogen Cooper Music Trust** _Year ended 31 December 2023_ ## **Independent Examiner’s report to the Board of Trustees of The Imogen Cooper Music Trust** I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Imogen Cooper Music Trust (charity number 1162347) for the year ended 31 December 2023 set out on pages 8 to 18. ## **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** ## **Independent examiner's statement** I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: The charitable incorporated organisation’s (CIO) trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act). The CIO’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; - to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act; and, - to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. This report, including my statement, has been prepared for and only for the CIO’s trustees as a body. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the CIO’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the CIO and the CIO’s trustees as a body for my examination work, for this report, or for the statements I have made. ## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the CIO and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the Trustees concerning any such matters. - accounting records were not kept in respect of the CIO as required by section 130 of the Act; or - the accounts do not accord with those records; or - the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. ## _**Andrew Philip Nash FCA**_ _Member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales – 2461833_ Dated: 18 October 2024 _Enaid Accountancy Ltd_ Units 24 & 25 Goodsheds Container Village Hood Road Barry CF62 5QU The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. **Registered charity no. 1162347** **7** **Statement of financial activities** **The Imogen Cooper Music Trust** _Year ended 31 December 2023_ ## **Statement of financial activities** ## **For the year ended 31 December 2023** **----- Start of picture text -----**

The notes on pages 10 to 18 form part of the financial statements. These financial statements were approved and authorised for issue by the Board of Trustees on 18 October 2024 and signed on their behalf by: Penny Jonas _**Trustee**_ **Registered charity no. 1162347** **9** **Notes to the financial statements** **The Imogen Cooper Music Trust** _Year ended 31 December 2023_ ## **Notes to the financial statements** ## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** ## _**Basis of preparation of the financial statements**_ The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ‘Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) second edition (effective 1 January 2019)’, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), including Update Bulletin 1, and relevant charities law. The effect of any event relating to the year ended 31 December 2023, which occurred before the date of approval of the financial statements by the Board of Trustees has been included in the financial statements to the extent required to show a true and fair view of the state of affairs at 31 December 2023 and the results for the year ended on that date. the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in note 9 of the financial statements. ## _**Income**_ Income is recognised when the Charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance indicators attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably. Donations are recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when entitled, receipt is probable and when the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Gift aid receivable is included when claimable. Grant income is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier, unless the grant relates to a future period, in which case it is deferred. The functional currency of the Charity is sterling. The amounts in the financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound. Ticket sales are recognised on completion of the concert or masterclass. ## _**Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT**_ Under the exemption available to smaller charities the Board of Trustees has chosen not to include a Statement of Cash Flows within the financial statements. ## _**Going concern**_ The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the Board of Trustees is confident that future reserves and future income is more than sufficient to meet current commitments. There are no material uncertainties that impact this assessment and the ongoing economic environment has had no material impact on this assessment. ## _**Legal status**_ The Imogen Cooper Music Trust is a charitable incorporated organisation registered in England & Wales, and meets the definition of a public benefit entity. The registered office is Flat 5, 125 Hornsey Lane, London, N6 5NH. ## _**Fund accounting**_ General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. Restricted funds are funds that are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or that have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities. Indirect costs, including governance costs, which cannot be directly attributed to activities, are allocated between activities proportionate to the direct costs incurred in those activities. Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of expenditure for which it was incurred. ## _**Tangible fixed assets and depreciation**_ All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised. Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their residual value, over their useful life, on a straight-line basis. The useful life used is: Musical instruments 10 years ## _**Cash at bank and in hand**_ Cash at bank and in hand includes cash in hand, deposits with banks and funds that are readily convertible into cash at, or close to, their carrying values, but are not held for investment purposes. **Registered charity no. 1162347** **10** **Notes to the financial statements** **The Imogen Cooper Music Trust** _Year ended 31 December 2023_ ## _**Debtors and prepayments**_ Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount is applied. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. ## _**Creditors**_ Creditors are recognised where the Charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party, and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. ## _**Financial instruments**_ ## _**Critical estimates and judgements**_ In preparing financial statements it is necessary to make certain judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements. The annual depreciation charge for property, plant and equipment is sensitive to changes in useful economic lives and residual values of assets. In the view of the Trustees in applying the accounting policies adopted, no judgements were required that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements nor do any estimates or assumptions made carry a significant risk of material adjustment in the next financial year. Basic financial instruments are measured at amortised cost other than investments which are measured at fair value. **Registered charity no. 1162347** **11** **Notes to the financial statements** **The Imogen Cooper Music Trust** _Year ended 31 December 2023_ ## **2.
