UBC - Union of Belgian Composers

Founded in 1960, the UBC aims at the promotion and advancement of Belgian Music in the context of national and international cultural life. The UBC is supported by Sabam and pursues its objectives by taking the following initiatives: lobbying to raise the visibility of Belgian music in their concerts; awarding prizes to performers with particular attention to Belgian music (FUGA), organisers or production houses who stand up for the national repertoire; bringing up to date a catalogue of Belgian works for educational purposes; an annual homage to a Belgian composer, the propagation on internet of the catalogue compiled by the UBC.
