Simon Brackenborough, founder and editor of Corymbus.

Thank you so much for choosing to support Corymbus! Every donation adds up, and is hugely important to securing the site's future.

Since I founded the site, I have had some fantastic feedback from readers. But I have also been using my own savings to spend time working on it - something that cannot continue for much longer.

Your support will help me to continue publishing in-depth writing on classical music from a growing number of writers, and keep it free for all to read. 

By donating, you are supporting a site founded on a belief in the inherent value of music to enrich and enchant our lives, as a force for public good. Corymbus is free of adverts, and no commercial interests are involved.

You are also supporting the intent to rectify the persistent inequalities in classical music, by shining a light on creative work by women, ethnic minorities, and composers outside the mainstream repertoire. 

You are supporting a commitment to quality over quantity, in an age of information overload and clickbait. The in-depth articles featured on Corymbus take time to research, write and edit - and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Anything you can give - no matter how small! - is hugely important. Your generosity will help to sustain a growing archive of writing that anyone can access to learn more about classical music, in all its diversity and depth. 

Thank you for reading, and thank you for your support!
