Goals / remit
| Goals / remit of the organisation: |
The Incorporated Society of Musicians (ISM) is the professional body for music and musicians.
We are independent of government and not financially dependent on any third party; our mission is to champion the art of music and support the music professional.
Founded in 1882, we have over 5,800 members who come from all branches of the profession: soloists, orchestral and ensemble performers, composers, teachers, academics and students. Our corporate membership of over 100 organisations includes the Association of British Orchestras (ABO), Classic FM, the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM), the International Artists Managers Association (IAMA), the Music Industries Association (MIA), all the UK conservatoires, several universities and our specialist music schools.
The ISM is a member of the Council for Subject Associations (CfSA) and provides secretariat support to the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Music Education. Our Chief Executive, Deborah Annetts, is Chair of the Music Education Council (MEC) and a member of the Worshipful Company of Musicians.
Our internationally recognised Distinguished Musician Award, first awarded in 1976, has been received by Sir William Walton OM, Jacqueline du Pre OBE, Sir Michael Tippett OM CH CBE, Sir Colin Davis CBE, Sir Charles Mackerras AC CH CBE and Pierre Boulez. Sir Adrian Boult, Sir Thomas Beecham, Sir Malcolm Sargent, The Lord Menuhin OM KBE (Yehudi Menuhin), Sir David Willcocks and Dame Gillian Weir are all past presidents of the Incorporated Society of Musicians.
