New Music Commission
ORCHESTRA SEEKS COMPOSER…again
Inspired by the
success of our first commission, that even reached Radio 3, Yorkshire
Late Starters Strings (YLSS) is seeking another composer to create music
with us.
US…We
are an ambitious amateur string orchestra, passionate about playing,
with all levels of ability from Grade 2 to Grade 8. We love a challenge
and are seeking to work with a composer on an original piece of music
for performance that will include all our players.
YOU…You
are an emerging or established composer, interested in creating a 10-15
minute piece, of high musical quality. The £500 prize we offer will not
make you rich, but you are looking too for an opportunity to work with
an enthusiastic orchestra.
We invite you to
submit a piece to be shortlisted for a Workshop in November 2009
with award-winning composer Joe Cutler, conductor George Kennaway
and players of YLSS. A performance of the selected piece will follow in
2010.
