As well as offering the visitor video and audio, the home page includes links to all the Centre’s different sites, including Facebook, Flickr, YouTube and MySpace, as well as featuring a feed to the CMC twitter page, meaning users can access the latest information on news and events.
In their own words, Dilletante is an online classical music hub that connects organisations and musicians with audiences, listeners with recorded and live music, and members of the worldwide classical community with each other.

David T.Little – Virtual Composer in Residence
.
Earlier this month, after an open competition worldwide, they announced that U.S. composer David T.Little would be their Digital Composer-In-Residence for the 2009/10.
Little wins a modest cash prize of £1000, but more interestingly, a year-long residency on the website. This allows him to engage with web-site members through a Composer’s Corner blog, a podcast series, online forums, and masterclasses. His residency culminates in 2010 a live event with a performance of a new work.
Here is a video of the winning piece.
