ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Composers may submit several pieces that total no more than 6 minutes in length. Teachers will select music appropriate for their students.
Composers must be prepared to pay for a rose to be presented to the student who performs their composition and the student’s teacher. The cost will be under $10 for two roses.
* This year we will be adding string instruments, flute and voice to our In Good Hands concert. So, we are looking for composers who are willing to be paired with a student and his/her teacher. The composer will write a new piece specifically for that performer, taking into account the interests and proficiency level of the student.
