Bethan Morgan-Williams (1992–) is a composer who writes quirky, rhythmically intricate music, finding motivation in the apogee of musical performance. Described as “marvellously oblique and obscure” while being “rooted in something ancient and folky”, Bethan’s music plays with expectation and variance. Her “interest music” seeks to sustain attention and surprise, reflecting the restless energy of 21st-century life.

Bethan’s work has been commissioned and performed by leading international soloists, ensembles, and orchestras, with broadcasts across Europe and North America. She is currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Huddersfield as the holder of the Jonathan Harvey Scholarship, researching collaborative methodologies in composition, and was appointed an honorary Associate Member of the Royal Northern College of Music in 2025.

Current collaborators are Richard Craig (flute) and Lucy Humphris (double-bell trumpet).
