UPDATE ! Microscore Project Call for Submissions !!

This is the final update related to the Submission call for microscores ; two solos (for violin & cello, or two performers) which can be performed together also. Since the passing of the dealine, I have had many requests for scores submissions, I feel I should extend the submission period to next week (January 28- Fenruary 3), to accomodate all you enthusiastic people, and to account for delay through the postal system etc.

Thanks again for keeping at least half an ear open !


=====================================================

This may turn out to be slightly crazy, but in the spirit of the Microscore Project I think I'll just go for it. First if you don't know about the project, please have a listen to some microscores first. As you are listening attempt to imagine a performance of 40 to 60 (or more) compositions, ideas, concepts, all coming together to create a kaleidoscope of sonic-visual tapestry.

INVITING Listeners, Writers/Musicians/Artist, Performers, Instrumentalists, Listeners

Seeking 30-second compositions that can be either performed as solo AND duo - instrumentation: violin or cello, or for one or two performers. Just to clarify, the composition has to function both as a solo and when performed by the duo. The first show will be of the SOLO Violin versions.

For the moment, the show is scheduled for February 20, 2008 at the Wine Cellar (Auckland) - the submission period is January 13 - 19.

Some guidelines for Scores submissions.

1. Scores sent in PDF format should be set in A4 or 8.5'x11' format.
2. If you are sending hard copies instead, please make sure to have 3 copies of the score.
Most times it should not be necessary to send individual parts as the compositions are so short. Please give this some thought.
3. Attach a very brief micro-bio of yourself, maximum 30 words.
