Winning contestants, ages 13 to 18, representing states from coast to coast, will be some of the most prominent future composers of the 21st century. You will have a chance to see their compositions performed for the first time on stage by the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra.
This free concert is sponsored by the University of Central Florida, Rollins College, Full Sail University, The Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Goldman Charitable Trust.
This event should not be missed. Please forward this email to every music lover you know, young and old.
For more information, please visit www.youngcomposerschallenge.org
HOW IT WORKS
1. ATTEND THE WORKSHOP
All young musicians are invited to participate in an optional free full-day workshop. Two workshops are offered each year - the Workshop East held in Orlando in the Spring, and the Workshop West held in the San Francisco Bay Area in the Fall. The workshops are open to any young musician, age 13 to 18, interested in learning how to write music. Workshop participants must register in order to attend one of the workshops. Workshops are available on a first-come first-serve basis and only a limited number will be allowed to attend, so register early!
Attendees will learn the principles of composition, orchestration, music notation, scoring software, and MIDI technology from nationally-recognized composers. Demonstrations of each orchestral instrument by top professional musicians will be provided, along with tips for writing for those instruments. Entrants who have already written music may bring their compositions for feedback. For other entrants, bring your ideas and talent — and then learn how to compose! Workshop attendees are not required to enter compositions in the contest.
2. WRITE A SCORE
Write an original score — either for full orchestra or for chamber ensemble. All compositions should be no longer than 5 minutes. Full orchestra compositions must be written for standard orchestra instrumentation (see guidelines). Chamber ensemble compositions may be written for 2 to 6 instruments. Competition entrants are not required to have attended a workshop.
3. SUBMIT YOUR ENTRY
After you finish your composition, make a MIDI recording of it. Or, if you prefer, you can make a regular audio-recording (e.g., as played on a piano, etc.). Then submit your recording and four copies of the score, along with anentry cover letter (PDF). The judges will review all entries and select three full orchestra compositions and three ensemble compositions. Submission deadlines for each Composium are listed in the schedule below.
Note: The next Composiums are not scheduled until March and October of 2013. However, you may submit compositions at any time before the deadlines listed in the table below. You may be older than 18 at the time of the Composium as long as you were 18 years or younger at the time your entry was submitted.
4. ATTEND THE COMPOSIUM
Each Spring, six winning compositions (three orchestral and three ensemble) will be selected for performance by the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra at the Composium East, held at the Bob Carr Auditorium in Orlando, FL.
Each Fall, six winning compositions (three orchestral and three ensemble) will be selected for performance by the Marin Symphony at the Composium West held at the Marin Veterans Memorial Auditorium in San Rafael, CA.
Each winner will receive a cash prize and a professional recording of the performance. Winners must attend.
