We draw on our heritage from the contemporary music tradition to deliver innovative and exciting music projects to people of all ages, engaging diverse groups of people in the creation and performance of new work. Initially one of the leading contemporary music ensembles in Scotland, Paragon has evolved over the last 30 years and now runs a highly dynamic music and dance programme.
We commission new works by Scottish and International composers and will shortly be featuring a new composition by Pippa Murphy in our upcoming Torque production. You will find some of our most recent projects here.
