MariusChamberlin Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I'm curious what specifically is a resident composer? I sometimes read about "resident composers" of orchestras, I would like to know what exactly do they do? My assumption is that the orchestra commissions them to write music to be performed?

Ferkungamabooboo Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Basically, they have a "standing commission" from what I understand. They're the main orchestrator and composer for the orchestra this season/year/decade/moon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
