The Proms Inspire Scheme brings together young composers, aged 12 to 18, to learn new skills and enjoy making music. Inspire has worked with over 450 young composers and will have commissioned nine new works and performed and broadcast works by 17 young composers in 2015.

Daniel Penney (b. 1999) began learning music through the Kodály Method and took classical guitar lessons from the age of 5 in Dublin. He received a Rolling Stones scholarship to study classical guitar at the Yehudi Menuhin School when he was 9 years old and has embraced composition as part of his studies since then.

Finlay Stafford (b. 1998) is a musician and multi-instrumentalist. He has been playing drums since the age of 5, and is interested in music across genres and time periods; from an early love affair with The Beatles to a continuing interest in jazz and modern psychedelia.

Toby Hession(b. 1997) is from Peterborough, where he sang as a chorister in the Cathedral Choir and studied piano and composition at Chetham's School of Music. He has had works performed at Peterborough Cathedral and the Royal Northern College of Music and, in 2013, he was commissioned to compose a piece for the Commonwealth Observance Day in Westminster Abbey.
