Ravels Radical Rivalry Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I received an e-mail about this competition. I will not be submitting anything because I would just feel that I am way out of my league. However, I know there are more than a couple of great composers on this site who already have major works completed or near completed that would be in the running for this competition. I wanted to make everyone aware of this just in case they wanted to submit something. Wouldn't it be great to have a YC composer win this competition! The winning work will be played by the 12 finalists of the Queen Elisabeth Competition for pianists in 2010, in the Brussels Centre for Fine Arts. Here is the timetable for the events: 7 November 2009 deadline for sending applications 30 November - 2 December 2009 examination of the scores by the international jury 31 December 2009 final date by which the laureate and finalists will be informed of their selection 1 February 2010 final date by which the laureate must have sent the piano reduction of the orchestral score 1 April 2010 final date by which the laureate must have sent the orchestral material 18 May 2010 rehearsals with the orchestra commence 21 May 2010 press conference 24 May 2010 premiere of the work 1 June 2010 awards ceremony Here is a link to the Queen Elisabeth Competition for Composition: Composition 2009 - Queen Elisabeth International Music Competition of Belgium Here is a link to the rules for the competition: http://cand.cmireb.be/files/cmp2009_en.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead Chicken Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 lol, I've known about this sinse about last year (when it was the violin/orchestra). I've always had intensions off trying to write something for it (whether or not a ultimately turned in something), but I have never gotten around to it. It is a wonderfull competition. Maybe I'll do the one in a couple years.... :hmmm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravels Radical Rivalry Posted August 21, 2009 Author Share Posted August 21, 2009 This is the second part of the piece written by the winner of last years composition contest. The focus of the contest was on violin. This years contest is piano and orchestra. The winners name is Cho Eun-Hwa she is a Korean composer. The piece was called "Agens".

Globutron Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Life is too short to be serious, laugh it up. I wouldn't normally do this, but, how wrong. your statement implies being serious is a bad thing and a waste of time, and that everybody should laugh at a duck being beaten by a child, rather than stopping the child. :mellow: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jawoodruff Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I composed a piece for it but finished the piece a week after the deadline - despite starting the piece 5 months prior to the deadline... I was... too slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
