Report of Trustees Financial Review Festival Debrief Report 2022

Promoting, developing, and showcasing contemporary liturgical music in service and concert

The London Festival of Contemporary Church Music was founded in 2002 with the aim of showcasing contemporary liturgical music in both service and concert. Now in its twentieth year, the LFCCM has grown to include nearly 60 events, dozens of composers, hundreds of performers and thousands of audience members, both live and online.

Letter from the Chair

Welcome to this first Annual Report of the Trustees of the London Festival of Contemporary Church Music! 2022 was a landmark year in the Festival’s history: while the administrators worked diligently on the Festival’s artistic recovery from the difficulties of the global coronavirus pandemic, the governance of the Festival underwent an historic change. Since its founding in 2002, the LFCCM and its annual Festival had been generously hosted as an artistic project of St Pancras Parish Church. For several years, however, both the Festival’s Administrators and the church’s staff and PCC had been in agreement that, both for the financial independence of the Festival as well as its independent governance, it was important for the Festival to become a separate legal entity.

In 2021 the then-Administrators began the process of separating the LFCCM from St Pancras Parish Church, establishing it as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation and Alastair Carey appointing three inaugural Trustees who would take on the task of overseeing the work of the Administrators and the long-term governance of the LFCCM and the Festival. I gratefully acknowledge the tireless efforts of Dr Christian Goursaud, the LFCCM’s acting Treasurer, who oversaw much of the work involved in establishing the LFCCM as a CIO, and Michele Price, partner at gunner cooke , who provided considerable legal advice and support on this process with enormous generosity and skill.

With the annual Festival taking place in May 2022, but the new charity not formally incorporated until 7 June 2022, the principal activity of the charity for the 2022 reporting period had already taken place. Likewise, the bulk of the charity’s financial activity, both income and expenditure, had taken place in the lead-up to the May Festival or immediately following it. For this reason, this first Annual Report is a little unusual, in that it reports on activities that predate the incorporation of the CIO. Understanding the Festival’s activities, however, is crucial to understanding the work of the CIO, and so this report incorporates material from the Administrators’ post-Festival Debrief Report that reflects on the May 2022 Festival completed just prior to the incorporation of the LFCCM as a CIO.

The work of the Trustees in this first year has largely been on establishing a governance framework for the future: development of new governance policies and formalisation of existing ones, identification of risks, and strategic planning for the Festival’s artistic future. Independence from St Pancras has created new opportunities for the Festival: establishing new partnerships with other venues and artistic groups, expanding our potential audience base, and considering new approaches to overall artistic strategy and leadership in the years ahead. The potential for the Festival to expand and develop in the future is bright, but there are challenges ahead as well: ongoing recovery from the long-term effects of the pandemic, a cost-of-living crisis that affects audiences and promotion, and a difficult funding environment with many artistic groups competing for an ever-dwindling set of funding sources. Now, more than ever, prudent governance and long-term planning are necessary to ensure the Festival’s good health for the future.

I am deeply grateful to my fellow Trustees, the Administrators of the Festival who work tirelessly to ensure its artistic success each year, and all our many partners – composers, performers, other venues and artistic groups, and of course our many supporters and funding partners, both private and public. Without your support and contributions, the Festival could not continue its work. On behalf of the Trustees, I thank you all.

Alastair Carey Chair, Board of Trustees

Letter from the Artistic Director

Dear Performers, Composers, and Directors of Music,

It has been a great pleasure to work with you to re-establish the London Festival of Contemporary Church Music after two years of pandemic lock-down. For a long time, the way ahead seemed uncertain. We had to concentrate on the Festival’s survival: how we could ensure that there was still a Festival which inspired

Christopher Batchelor

composers and performers of all ages after the pandemic was past. Now that we can

see COVID is likely here to stay in one form or another, it has become clear that our ability to work around this will concentrate our efforts for the future.

We have continued to work our way into areas where contemporary church music is comparatively little known, but there is still much to do. It is relatively straightforward to put a programme of dance and music for organ together in a concert setting, as we were able to do in this year’s Festival programme; it is a greater challenge to combine these two genres in the course of a liturgical service. Nevertheless, I do think that we are well on the way, in this and other areas, and I think this will be a significant area of expertise and growth in the future.

For some time I have wanted to include a programme which encourages young organists, and with the support of Ghislaine von Trapp and Highgate School we managed to include this in the 2022 programme with considerable success. I hope that we can develop this in the future, perhaps in conjunction with a heightened focus on organ works in composer submissions to our “Call for Scores” project. We are very fortunate to have access to two very capable but very different organs at St Pancras Parish Church.

This year’s Festival programme included many highly creative contributions. It was a great pleasure to be able to programme concerts by fine choirs, organists, and dancers from several London educational institutions:

In addition to these external performances by outside artists, the Festival’s own professional ensembles, the Choir of St Pancras Parish Church and The LFCCM Festival Singers, presented events on the opening day of the Festival. In the morning, the Choir of St Pancras Parish Church led the singing of Vaughan Williams hymnody, presented by Simon Wright, an expert on the hymnody of Vaughan Williams from Oxford University Press. Later that evening, The LFCCM Festival Singers presented a concert featuring Vaughan Williams’ much admired Mass in G Minor and his little-known Four Last Songs in a new choral arrangement by Jonathan Wikeley. The focus on Vaughan Williams was to celebrate the 150th anniversary of his birth and his marriage to Ursula Wood in the vestry chapel of St Pancras Parish Church in 1953. The concert programme also included motets by Judith Bingham and the premiere performance of a significant new commission: the Festival Te Deum by Phillip Cooke.

The Festival aims to consistently include and feature music by its composer-patrons. This year we have been able to include performances of pieces by Cecilia McDowall, Sebastian Forbes, Michael Berkley, Roxanna Panufnik, Jonathan Dove, Tim Ambler, Ronald Corp, Judith Bingham, Alan Gibbs, and James MacMillan. The Festival is grateful to all those who have enabled it to commission new works from a very broad range of composers; in 2022, these included Janet Wheeler, Gregory Rose, and Phillip Cooke.

After 20 years of the LFCCM, I am distinctly aware that we have much to be grateful for, including the tireless support of our founding patrons: Rt Revd Peter Wheatley, former Bishop of Edmonton; Prebendary Paul Hawkins, former Vicar of St Pancras Parish Church; Michael Berkeley, composer; and Sebastian Forbes, academic and composer. All the founding patrons have preached at Festival services or given pre-concert talks in the last two years. I am also very grateful for the continued support of the Vicar and the PCC of St Pancras Parish Church; the efforts of all at St Pancras enable the Festival to reach out into the broader community. I also wish to record my personal thanks to the Festival’s organising committee, who performed exceptionally under difficult circumstances in arranging and executing 2022’s Festival. Thank you all for your contribution to the success of this year’s LFCCM.

Dr Christopher Batchelor Artistic Director

Our Purpose, Aims, and Objectives

The London Festival of Contemporary Church Music was founded by Christopher Batchelor in 2002 with the aim of showcasing contemporary liturgical music in both service and concert. Today, the LFCCM’s goals and activities fall into three broad categories:

Composition-based activities, including commissions, management of the “Call for Scores” open submission project, and encouraging performance of premieres at participating churches across London.

Performance-based activities, typically involving a mixture of ticketed concerts, free recitals, and liturgical services featuring contemporary music at a wide variety of participating churches across London.

Outreach-based activities, including workshops, educational projects, and seminars.

Our goal each year is to find a blended mix of these activities that, together, promote and encourage the development of new sacred music and the fostering of choral and organ composition and performance at all ages and levels of ability. Nearly all events promoted by the Festival are free of charge, so as to maximise the accessibility and benefit to the general public.

Festival Debrief Report 2022 Our Activities in 2022

The founding of the LFCCM as a charitable organisation in June 2022 meant that the principal activity of the CIO for 2022 – the annual Festival in May – had already taken place. The activities of the CIO for 2022, therefore, are mostly to do with governance and the establishment of the new legal entity.

The Administrators of the 2022 Festival prepared a Debrief Report detailing the Festival’s activities and outcomes for that year. The next pages of this Annual Report include excerpts from the 2022 Debrief Report, detailing the activities that took place immediately prior to the founding of the CIO.

A complete listing of the 58 events that comprised 2022’s Festival programme are available at . https://www.lfccm.com/whatson/festivals/2022/

Summary of Activities and Outcomes

LFCCM Annual Report of Trustees / Financial Review / Festival Debrief Report 2022

12

Performance-based activities: Liturgical Services

At St Pancras Parish Church

As part of a continuing effort to limit costs, 2022’s Festival maintained the 2019 and 2021 Festivals’ core number of eight professional singers (two each of soprano, alto, tenor, and bass) for LFCCM services. In 2022 this core ensemble was deployed at Choral Eucharist and Choral Evensong on Sundays 8 and 15 May. A reduced ensemble of four voices (SATB) was used for the RVW Hymnody workshop on Saturday 7 May 2022, while five voices (SSATB) were engaged for the Choral Eucharist on Wednesday 11 May 2022 and for the Choral Recital on Thursday 12 May. A larger choir of twelve voices was engaged for the RVW/Bingham concert on Saturday 7 May.

The members of the Choir of St Pancras Church were offered first refusal on all engagements.

£70 remained the standard service fee. This fee level has not increased since at least 2015, so the Trustees and Committee might wish to give some thought to how best to ensure LFCCM pays a fair rate to its musicians. Total expenditure on singers during the 2021 Festival was £5,295.00 compared with £7,350.10 in 2019, a reduction of around 28%; this was necessary in order to achieve 2022’s rather tight budgetary goals.

At other Participating Churches

33 participating churches took part in 2022’s Festival, a substantial post-pandemic recovery of 175% over 2021 but still down 21% compared to 2019’s Festival. These 33 churches contributed 42 liturgical services to the Festival programme, a post-pandemic recovery of 200% over 2021 but still down 35% compared to 2019. There were five new participating churches in 2022:

Additionally, three churches returned to participating in the Festival after an extended period away:

Diversity of liturgical approach across participating venues appears reduced compared to pre-pandemic; 2019’s Festival included participation from venues with liberal / evangelical services that included jazz and improvisation; participation in 2022 tended to be from venues focussed on the more traditional choir-accompanied-by-organ approach. Diversity in ensemble skill level remains diverse, with participating ensembles based at these various churches range from amateur parish choirs through to fully professional vocal ensembles, suggesting that there continues to be scope for a wide variety of interests and skill levels to participate in the Festival.

Composition-based activities: “Call for Scores”

The Festival’s “Call for Scores” project is an open competition for music to be performed at the Festival. Starting in 2010, “Call for Scores” has now collected hundreds of submitted choral and organ works from around the world.

Submissions for a particular Festival are normally collected in the second half of the previous year. This schedule was complicated by the impact of the global coronavirus pandemic. More than 200 works were submitted in the second half of 2019 for consideration for 2020’s Festival; once it became obvious that 2020’s Festival could not proceed, the committee decided to offer submitting composers the option of rolling over their submissions for 2020’s Festival to 2021. Additional functionality was added to the lfccm.com website to facilitate the collection of roll-over data for each participating composer. The vast majority of submitting composers elected to roll over their submitted works into 2021. This resulted in a total of 243 submissions for 2021’s Festival, with 200 of these being personal submissions of unpublished works.

A further 182 submissions were made in the second half of 2021 for 2022’s Festival, with 167 of these being approved for distribution to 2022’s participating churches. There were 41 performances of 37 works in 2022, a substantial 30.5% drop in participation compared to 2019’s Festival. This reflects both the impact of the pandemic on church participation as well as fewer performance slots being available at St Pancras Parish Church for “Call for Scores” submissions. A priority for 2023’s Festival is to increase the number of performance slots available for “Call for Scores” submissions.

The committee requested the ability to be able to break down “Call for Scores” submissions by composer country of birth and residence; previously we did not collect composer metadata on nationality. The new demographics have been added in time for 2022’s “Call for Scores” in September. Additionally, submitting composers can now upload a portrait to go with their biography, allowing us to add a visual dimension to our composer archives.

Outreach Activities

Hymnody Workshop

2022’s programme featured a workshop on the hymnody of Ralph Vaughan Williams, presented by Simon Wright from Oxford University Press and with the singing led by the Choir of St Pancras Parish Church. Simon’s presentation was both engaging and fascinating, with keen insight into Vaughan Williams’ process of collecting existing folksong material from across England, as well as developing his own original melodies and arrangements. While many of these have become treasured parts of the repertory, there are many lesser-known arrangements as well; Simon’s selection presented a fine balance between well-known material and new discoveries.

Fundraising

Charitable Fundraising

2022’s Festival received funds from the following funding partners:

LFCCM Annual Report of Trustees / Financial Review / Festival Debrief Report 2022

16

2022 proved a difficult year for fundraising. An application to the RVW Trust was declined. The committee researched potential applications to both the Howells Foundation and the Tranchell Foundation, but ultimately decided that the Festival’s plans did not meet the aims of those foundations. Opportunities were missed to apply to some other funding bodies due to delays scoping the Festival’s performance projects; these missed opportunities included Ecclesiastical Music Trust, Fenton Arts Trust, PRSF, ACE and Fidelio. This reinforces the need for the Festival to plan its projects further in advance. Another potential funding partner, the Hinrichsen Trust, decided not to award any grants last year.

Some core trusts to which the Festival has previously applied were deemed inappropriate in 2022 because the LFCCM organisation was in the process of becoming a legally recognised charitable organisation but had not yet completed that process. For example, the Williams Church Music Trust will only support registered charities and the LFCCM was not registered in time for the 2022 deadline.

The committee is in the process of untangling the provenance of a 2019 grant from PRSF; as much as £2,500 of this might still be owed to LFCCM.

Private Donors

Private donations totalling £4,386 were directed primarily towards performance projects.

Obstacles to Fundraising

There are several consistent obstacles which prevent our fundraising strategy from working as it could and should. In most cases, these boil down to issues with making decisions about programming with too short a lead time to effectively fundraise for them (or ensuring that the appropriate personnel have enough time to complete applications in a timely manner). Having an idea in November, December, or January for an event scheduled for May is too late in the day for fundraising efforts to be at their most effective; the Festival is heavily reliant on funding partners’ deadlines falling within the right window.

Ideally, fundraising for major LFCCM events should begin at least ten to twelve months before the next Festival in order to allow us to consistently apply to a wider range of funding bodies. Funders also need to feel confident that the Festival has a tangible business plan in place, and I do not believe that this is currently the case. To further increase our appeal to funders, we also need to show greater development as an organisation and to be seen to be innovating year-on-year. The specifics of what we focus on to show this are actually fairly open, and could include such things as:

Now that the LFCCM has achieved charitable status, the Festival should see the benefits of being able to apply to a wider pool of funding organisations. For the first time we will also be able to approach funders who provide help with core costs, rather than only event or project-specific funding. These funds are often hotly contested, so success is not guaranteed, but as a charity we will be in a much better application position than we previously were. We have a real opportunity to develop the organisation for the better in the upcoming months and years.

Online Engagement and Analysis

Facebook and Instagram

Since the start of the year the LFCCM’s Facebook page added 24 new likes, bringing the current total of page likes and follows to 717 likes and 770 followers, a pleasing increase of 15.8% over 2019’s Festival.

One Facebook advertisement was run during the 2022 Festival dates, reaching an estimated 2964 accounts with 2998 impressions. During the festival month as a whole, over 5000 people saw Facebook content from the LFCCM page, although a much smaller number reached out to directly engage with the content.

The biggest new development in 2022 was the setting up of an LFCCM Instagram account. This currently has 167 followers. During the Festival month, there were 397 visits to LFCCM’s Instagram compared with only 107 to the Facebook page, which shows that this content was favourably received and may suggest a swing in preferred social media platform amongst our target audience.

The demographic statistics on these accounts suggest that LFCCM followers are split roughly 60/40 maleidentifying to female-identifying, and that around 30% of followers are based in London. Given the Festival is based in London, this seems a surprisingly low number.

Twitter

The @lfccm Twitter account has 839 followers, an increase of just under 22% since 2019.

Twitter remains, in my opinion, the most effective medium for the Festival to interact with composers and music groups, although it seems clear that creating additional content for Instagram and Facebook has some value. This was particularly noticeable for the events which attracted a younger demographic. The Organ and Dance collaboration in 2022 benefitted from this, as most of the student dancers regularly used instagram to promote their own work and amplified the LFCCM event that way.

LFCCM Annual Report of Trustees / Financial Review / Festival Debrief Report 2022

Direct Mail

The committee has identified a strategic opportunity that we aim to develop over the course of 2022 and 2023. Currently, the Festival maintains a number of disparate contact lists: patrons, commissioned composers, participating venues, submitters to “Call for Scores”, and so forth. The committee intends to merge these various contact lists for the purposes of direct email. The goal is to engage more directly and more regularly with all the LFCCM’s various stakeholders, making sure they are informed of our progress on our projects and how they can contribute, either materially or financially. We hope to have this in place by the time of 2023’s Festival.

LFCCM Annual Report of Trustees / Financial Review / Festival Debrief Report 2022

Structure, Governance, and Management

The London Festival of Contemporary Church Music (LFCCM) is a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) (charity number 1199196). It is governed by its Constitution, last amended on 17 May 2022 and adopted at the date of the CIO’s incorporation on 7 June 2022. The formal membership of the CIO is limited by the Constitution to the Trustees; there are no other voting members. The members of the CIO have no liability to contribute to its assets and no personal responsibility for settling its debts and liabilities in the event the CIO is wound up.

The Trustees

On 7 June 2022 the CIO was incorporated with three Trustees, the minimum quorum required by the Constitution. Two additional Trustees were appointed on 21 September 2022. When appointed as Trustees, individuals automatically become members of the charity until they are no longer Trustees. All Trustees are appointed for three year terms with the sole exception of the inaugural Trustees who were appointed for an initial term of four years. No Trustee may serve more than three terms consecutively without a break of at least one year.

New Trustees receive copies of the Constitution, the most recent Annual Report and Financial Statement, such other internal information as may be needed in order to familiarise themselves with the governance of the charity (for example, minutes of recent meetings and policy documents), and induction information provided to all charitable organisations by the Charity Commission.

The Trustees meet three times per year to review, oversee, and guide the work of the Festival’s Administrators. They develop such governance policies and strategies as may be required to effectively manage the CIO in the long term. The Trustees have sole responsibility for financial oversight and management of the Festival and the Festival’s

LFCCM Annual Report of Trustees / Financial Review / Festival Debrief Report 2022

21

Administrators. The Administrators may attend meetings in order to advise the Trustees as required. One of the Administrators or one of the Trustees serves as the acting Treasurer.

Related Parties

The CIO enjoys a long, warm association with St Pancras Parish Church, its staff, musicians, and governing body (the PCC of St Pancras Parish Church). This reflects the fact that the Festival was founded at St Pancras, was hosted as an artistic project of the church for its first 20 years, and – while now separated from the church both financially and in terms of governance – continues to benefit from the church’s generosity as a host venue and a valued artistic partner.

Public Benefit

In planning the Festival’s activities each year, both the Trustees and the Administrators take into consideration the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. In particular, the Trustees are guided by the objects of the CIO, namely:

LFCCM Annual Report of Trustees / Financial Review / Festival Debrief Report 2022

22

Responsibilities of the Trustees

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law.

The Financial Year for the CIO is the same as the calendar year, i.e. 1 January – 31 December. However, since the CIO was incorporated on 7 June 2022, the Financial Statements in this Report cover the period 7 June – 31 December 2022.

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the CIO. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the CIO and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The CIO has opted to prepare Receipts and Payments Accounts which summarise all money received and paid out by the charity in the period, and a statement giving details of its assets and liabilities at the end of the year.

Receipts in the period totalled £11,110, including £3,070 brought in from the predecessor organisation. Expenses totalled £8,968. This left £2,142 in the bank account at the end of the year, which is below the desired level of reserves as determined by the reserves policy. As noted above, the Trustees have plans for increased fundraising to improve this position in future years.

LFCCM Annual Report of Trustees / Financial Review / Festival Debrief Report 2022

23

Reserves Policy

The Trustees have determined that the desired level of reserves should be such that it is possible for the Festival to proceed with a minimum viable amount of activity in all key areas:

To fulfil these objectives this policy sets a desired free reserve balance of £9,500. This level will be reviewed annually.
